What's the name of this variable setting method?

In it's basis what this does is check if the value before the or is a truthy value (anything but nil). That means if there's no child which is a Humanoid then it will return nil. Additionally if the value before or is not a truthy value then it will use the value behind or.

As an addition if you really want to know the name of this assignment method. To be honest I don't think there really is one. The closest you could compare it to is a ternary (conditional) operation.
