I've seen this word a couple of times and am currently stuck on how to use
it..

I know "いう" means "say" but I don't understand the の particle attached to it.
Could someone provide a couple of examples of how to use this? The only
example I could find online was

" **それ は えいご では なんと いうの ですか**." which I assume " **なんというの** " translates to
"how do you say"

How do you use "iuno/いうの"？
Adding の after a verb is a way of forming a noun clause. Adding the ですか then
turns it into a question in the polite form. Ending with the の like in your
second example is the same but in a casual form.

Note that in this case という is being used quite literally, asking "how do you
say that." But という is an idiom that can be used in other ways as well.
