Floating commas

In dutch I've heard them be called flying commas unapologetically (vliegende comma's — ironically has one in it because many plurals need it, it doesn't mark possession)

Ik heb nog nooit iemand een ' een vliegende komma horen noemen, wordt dat in bepaalde delen van Nederland meer gezegd?
