I'm not sure what the flavor is for the trait. Is this some kind of lightweight squishy race that absorbs the hit by flying backward? If so, I would call it "Lightweight" or something along those lines.
BTW, I would reword the trait somewhat.
"You have resistance to bludgeoning damage. When you take bludgeoning damage [you must succeed on a DC XX (Strength/Dexterity) saving throw. On a failed save,] you are pushed a number of feet equal to the amount of bludgeoning damage you take divided by 5 in a direction away from the source of the damage."
The phrase in brackets added if you want to allow a save to resist the movement.
This is indeed a squishy race. Small, fish-like people who would go flying if, say, a quarterstaff were to hit them across the body, but also wouldn't take that much damage from it.
I wish there were a verb in English that described the way a fish out of water frantically flops around after getting hit by something hard... besides flop.
