This is also often called the Spanish "N".

by the way, the (ñ) is pronounce (/ng/) and is written (eñe)... is not that dificult. In fact is a evolutionary form of a romace languaje such as the Spanish or (Español).
Yes, in general that is what most "above" symbols (ö) (ñ) or (ú) are often called in the Spanish Alphabet, Tildes or Diacritical Tildes are some of those names, but they are also known by other names such as Cremas or Dieresis.
These names generally indicate any of the mentioned symbols; the bar above the N letter fell into this category. But the bar on the N has a unique individual name, a particular name.. ¿What is that name?
In the Spanish language, there are two "N" sounds...the english sounding "N" which you know of, and the Ñ, or ene, sound. Technically, it is a palatal nasal. It is spoken with a slightly more nasal sound. For examples of the differences, try looking up words here(http://www.spanishdict.com/), and then click the sound to hear it pronounced. For example::

Spanish and other languages have other diacritics which are sounds outside the normal english alphabet.

Things that come to mind are palatal nasal - this is a way of describing a letter (or glyph) that is pronounced in a certain way (ex. año contains a palatal nasal in the form of ñ). Another term you might be looking for is "ligature" - used to describe a convergence of two (or more) symbols into one--in this case "n" and "~", or in Greek "æ". Any of that what you are looking for?
Years of Spanish classes...floating at the fringe of my brain.

No. "Acento" is a different thing. Acento is the way it is pronounce. A word with or without an emphasis in the tone. The little bar above the N letter has a particular distinctive name, which by itself originates a new letter, the Ñ. This is pronounce: /eng/
Again, the little bar above the letter Ñ could be described as one of may alphabet symbols which are all known as Tildes, Tildes Diacriticas, Dieresis or Cremas.
But the little bar alone has his own particular name ¿what is that name?
Somebody told me this years ago. Today I don´t remember any more. But I can tell you that even Spanish professors and scholars are had a hard time figuring out the name of the bar over the Ñ letter.
