angle bead, corner bead
The Diccionario Visual de Arquitectura (Francis D. K. Ching) gives "angle bead" or "corner bead" for both guardavivos and guardacantos.
If you look at the first link, you'll see photos of the guardavivos (several types) (in the "revoques" section).

edge protection
Es una pena que esté también guardacantos en la misma lista porque para mí "guardavivos" significa la protección de los bordes en las esquinas y ángulos de los muros.
