I don't know the name of it but maybe you can go to a nail salon and ask them. They have this product that you pain over your the tip of your nails/fingers and it tastes super bitter. It helped my friend stop her habit because the taste is so bad and she remembers whenever she has the urge to bite...

Just think of all the gross things that are under your nails. . . .
Do you really want that in your mouth?
But if even that mental thought won't cure your bad habit,
I know a friend who couldn't stop biting her nails
after trying everything she could think of
so finally she went to a nail salon and got fake nails.
It's about $40 to get your intial first set,
but then you only go in every two-three weeks
for about $20 to get a fill.
She's been doing this for 6 months
and no longer bites her nails-
because even if she tried, she couldn't bite them off! :)
Hope that helps

i used to bite mine all the time. i'm sure you've already tried keeping them painted but I started paying attention when i bit my nails, and whenever i caught myself putting my hand to my mouth, i would try and keep it down, or just chew on my finger for a bit. now i never reach for my fingernails and my nails are long and healthy

When you find out let me know because I do it too! My mom said keep them polished so that way you won't want to bite them because if you do then your fingers will look crazy with half the polish gone

get a manicure, it helps, you don't want to mess up what you've paid money for.
i also have a problem with nail biting, and this helps, but now, i pick at the skin around them, that's my next hurdle to overcome, good luck.

put some tooth numbing paste on your fingers so when you try to bite your teeth they become numb and the taste is nasty
