They are known as 'cross hangers'.
Again I would counsel you to choose your period first. Cross hangers (which are normally ribbed on Mainz and Pompeii scabbards, although far simpler on the transitional 'Valkenburg/Poto Novo' type) drop out of use in the mid second century AD in favour of scabbard slides, which themselves go through a range of developments over time.
If you have already decided on a specific period and let us know what that is, we can then concentrate on getting the details right for you.
