Default Is there a 'proper' name for Euro/French two-pin 2.5A sockets?

I am trying to buy a single socket for one of those standard 2-pin
European (French) plugs which are commonly used on table lamps and
such. These have the same size pins and spacing as the round 10 amp
plugs but are slimmer and have 'triangular' ends. I think they're
rated at 2.5 amps.

I know the plug will fit in a bigger round socket or in a German
Schuko socket but I'd prefer to find one specifically for the smaller
plugs so that a big round one won't fit.

I want one that will flush mount if possible, I don't have much
clearance available where it's going to be installed.
