I think its good name and capture the capabilities of this power, you are not fully immortal because you are only immune to aging (your body will freeze in time) but fatal wounds can kill you hence the "Semi-", I guess you can call it eternal youth too.

but all things will age, since well, time? Well, the concept of Immortality is against the concept of time, by being immortal you are immune to time effect on you. immortality, even with semi having been attached to it here, still means "exempt from death", "external life" and "lack of mortality"; not being able to age doesn't mean one cannot die If you immune to aging you will never die, your body will never age and still function perfectly, so you are immortal. Semi-immortality would literally mean "exempt from death, only under specific conditions". And you are exempt from death, but if you get fatal wounds (specific condition) you will die.
