The name for positively charged subatomic particles is a proton.
Explanation:
There are three main types of subatomic particles in an atom, protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons and neutrons have the most mass.
Protons are positive, and neutrons are neutral. Both are together in the center of an atom, called the nucleus.
Electrons are negatively charged, and orbit the nucleus in a series of orbitals, grouped together into sub-shells and shells.
