Is there a name for this kind of handlebar?

I've been looking at various handlebars to modify my Jamis Coda Sport. At first I thought I might want a more upright position, but on reflection I'm probably upright enough as it is. But the typical flat-bar wrist position (which always reminds me of a gorilla walking on is knuckles, with the forearms and shoulders tilted forward) feels a little unnatural, and as a writer I want to make sure I'm doing putting any undue stress on my wrists....carpal tunnel, you know. Anyway, I would like to see if I can find a flat-style bar that gives me a more natural wrist angle. So is there a flat bar that offers just a slight sweep-back at the ends without any rise, and if so, what's the name for it?

Viewed from above, something like:

The Jamis's bar does this VERY slightly, but I'd like a little more.
