I call them spring steel U nuts or clip on floating nuts. Not sure if that's the official name but it'll usually get you what you want if you ask for them.

Could try your local Fastenal for the spring nuts also.

Its called a speed nut, or spring nut depending on where you are looking

The paint supply house down the road from me used to carry stuff like that. Not sure if they still do or not....

Do yourself a huge favor and go to McMaster Karrs website, harder to find everything online but a quick look threw their caralog and you'll be amazed at the selection and prices. I bought all of my hardware including those j nuts, very good source.
