'Note value' (see the title of the page in the link I provided) is the duration. We also say 'note duration'.
The 'note symbol' is the graphic representation of the note. Sometimes, instead of 'note symbol', we just say 'music note'. For example, 'How do I get a music note to appear in my document?'
There are 'music symbol fonts' (or you can search for 'music note fonts' or 'music note symbol fonts'). Such variety!
The notes, as you mentioned, are called A, B, C, etc. Those are the 'names' of the notes (or 'note names'). We also say 'pitch'. For example, 'Play an A for me.' 'What is the name of this note (the teacher pointing to a note on the scale)?' 'What is its pitch?'
'Note symbol' (figura) is a great term. We also use '(music) notation' or 'music (note) symbol'. Which would you prefer as the title?
