blank-space

I really like the "blanking after open and before close brackets"-codingstyle in modern codes Java/C#/C++ .
e.g. calling a function:

foo(myparam);
// versus
foo( myparam );

Do you have a better name for this codingstyle? where does it come from? Do you like it either, what is the reason for you to use it or not use it? a few years ago people said "you are blanking" if one has used too much blank space characters in a forumspost or email. many thanks in advance
regards
