It's called light diffuser panels. I have no idea where it got the name egg crate from.

Actually, if you read the store label at HD, it really says "Eggcrate" on it. I'm guessing the name is from the way the little squares look similar to a box of eggs from the grocery store.

I just bought some from HD and almost no one in the store ever heard of egg crate. Luckily the guy working the lighting/electrical section was a reefer and knew exactly what I was looking for. It is located in the lighting/electrical section.
