I use "complex transitive," but to me, that term can cover other types
of constructions as well -- it seems like a "none of the above" label
devised to deal with anything other than linking, transitive, or
ditransitive.
What I'd *like* to call the object complement constructions is
"translinking," since I think it captures their structure better. For
some reason, though, there appears to be a wholly-unfounded resistance
to the idea that I, personally, can make up entirely new sets of grammar
terminology.

That term is used pretty widely in both pedagogical and standard
reference grammars.

Subject: Double object verbs and object plus object complement verbs
Is there a term to describe verbs that can take both a direct object and
an
object complement such as the following:
we made Mary happy
we called John, the boss.
I know that ditransitives are variously called ditransitives and double
object verbs but do not know the term for the above. Further, is there
a
term for a double object verb that also takes an object complement as in
the
following?
