ceiling rose

is what I think is meant here. The circular cover for where the wire cables come out of the ceiling. If you have a twisty rail of lights, then this cover would not fit too well....

ceiling holder ring? retainer ring?

Cover ring? Yes, maybe, but it may be a locking ring or an isolator-ring too. Don't you have a drawing or a picture for reference?

ceiling trim

Assuming your context is recessed lights, the trim (Abschlussring) serves to cover the edges of the ceiling cut-out.
