There are going to be three "toolbars" in Inkscape:

1. Under the menu, horizontal, with buttons for common non-tool-specific

operations such as Open, Save, etc.

Gnome calls this the standard toolbar

2. Below 1, horizontal, with too-specific buttons and controls (exists now

and is called "top panel" or "aux toolbar").

Jasc and Adobe call this the "tool options palette" (it is usually bigger, not strictly a toolbar).

3. Vertical at the left, with tool buttons.

I'd simply call this the toolbar or toolbox, but there may be a better description.
