I've got some handy little widgets that came with some gear that I picked up 
along the way, and would love to get more of them, but don't know where to look:

These particular ones have 1/4-20 threads on one side and 3/8-16 on the other 
end, and are shaped for clamping lights.

It would also be great to have some that had 10mm threads, because I've got 
some backdrop stands with 10mm threads that would be handy to be able to use as 
light stands.

I don't know what to even call them to get an effective search for them on 
google.

Those little adapters come with the likes of these things, known as umbrella mounts ...

They call them, helpfully, "male and female adapters".  :-)

That particular one goes for about thirty bucks and comes with a (cold) hotshoe adapter making it extremely useful for those of us with hotshoe flashes.
