If they aren't connected to anything electrical, they aren't "hot", and I
have seen them called "cold" shoes! Just flash shoes should be clear
enough, and I have seen them available with pre-drilled holes to fix to a
panel or suchlike, but they are more easily available with a 1/4"x20 thread
to fit to a tripod, like this one:

Interesting.
I was making mention about that.
I tried out me new get up today, and broke the spring clip. I have a better
idea already as this little light I use is made to go on a hot shoe, all I
need are some hot shoes I can attach to a piece of metal.
At the .2 to 3 inches away I am taking pics, a ring flash over powers it or
doesn't get close enough.
So what would you call those little hot shoes (they don't need to connect to
any electrical)

Somebody recently posted about lighting macros (Scott?) and I meant to post
a link.
This is the simple, elegant and inexpensive set-up that C.H. put together
