In Japanese, it's ピンポンダッシュ which is a transliteration of "ping pong dash."

Could also just translates to Pin Pon Dash. Yes ピンポン can translate to Ping Pong the game but it literally says Pin Pon which is Japanese onomatopoeia for the doorbell sound.

I guess, but that would be the transliteration of the Japanese onomatopoeia as "pin pon" afaik doesn't really mean much in English. I thought with "ping pong," we at least associate with the sound.
