Well, they're what you just said: squiggle lines that serve as a visual indicator for the source of a growl.

They just indicate a sound or source of a sound and don’t have a special name.

I thought the same was used in Western cartoons [e.g.](https://www.pixtastock.com/illustration/47679563). Does that have a name in English?
