If the cylinder were considerably longer, laypeople might call it a pencil, but that term is already used for something else in geometry.

Can't find anything better than "Cylindro-conical shape". However, a pyramid on top of a prism is called "elongated pyramid". If we can apply similarity then this shape should be called "elongated cone".
