Motion Glossary Project - "Flourishes"

So, this may draw some corrections, but I personally call these little marks and accents that emphasize an action "flourishes". In other instances, I'd be tempted to call them secondary actions, but, to me, that means something a little different - an action that's more attached and persistent to the character, rather than small emphasis marks.

I don't have a lot of reason to make this delineation, other than naming layers specifically haha. So if anyone has any thoughts on this, let me know - I'd like to know how right or wrong I am, or other thoughts on the matter! I also realize this is pretty inconsequential, so I'm not expecting much of a discussion haha.
