Good point, maybe hydroxonium for OH+? I just know I never want to be in the same lab as a real OH+ species. Sounds like one of those "things I don't want to work with"

-onium is usually an extra group/proton (carbonium, oxonium, bromonium...). HO+ isn't too hard to approximate--just take a hydroperoxide or peroxyacid and add strong acid like with piranha :)
