What is this part called (metal box square insert)

I am trying to find a specific part I need but I don't know what it is called. I have a metal square box I am planning to use for a standard pull chain ceiling fixture. However since the metal box is square and the ceiling fixture is round, I need the metal insert piece that screws into the square box allowing a round fixture to be screwed in. What is that insert piece called? Thank you.

We call them mud rings. They go on a 4" square box when it gets installed in sheetrock.
