It cannot be called classic, because that would get confused with classic ASP. I don't like calling it traditional because of the connotation that word has.

Do we called it: Normal ASP.NET Mainstream ASP.NET ASP.NET MVP

What else?

+14  A: 

It's called ASP.Net WebForms.

There's ASP.NET, and on top of that there are Web Forms and MVC. @Baddie: http://www.asp.net/web-forms

Scott Guthrie refers to the two technologies using this terminology. Considering he heads up that area at Microsoft, I would say he's pretty much the authority: http://weblogs.asp.net/scottgu/archive/2010/01/24/about-technical-debates-both-in-general-and-regarding-asp-net-web-forms-and-asp-net-mvc-in-particular.aspx

A: 

What's wrong with just "ASP.NET"? It's "ASP.NET MVC" that is the clarifier. Do you mean in speech or referring to tags here?

ASP.NET is the common denominator between ASP.NET WebForms and ASP.NET MVC. MVC does not supercede ASP.NET, so MVC *is* ASP.NET just like WebForms *is* ASP.NET
