If it's 50-50 I'd prefer to stick with what's in most references.

sankoku redirects to "なみせん"
daijr/s, meikyo, obunsha, nikk all use "なみ線"/なみせん in the definitions
the majority of youglish results (excluding videos of the same channel/unclear audio) use "なみせん", though it's arguably still close to 50-50

my guess is that most people just use "なみせん" and "はせん" has a more "technical language" vibe

Youglish search results for "波線" are mixed between はせん and なみせん. Hard to say which one is more popular.

My Japanese girlfriend referred to it as namisen and when I told her in the dictiionary it's reda as hasen she told me it's wrong and referred me to that wiki article.
I'm assuming as a Japanese she might know the reading better since she uses that word.
