I didn't see a duplicate for this in the similar questions, so here goes. Is
there either a list of words like this, or a name for this type of word (made
of two very rare/complex kanji, but the word itself is fairly common)?

These are the ones I have so far, for reference:

> 癇癪{かんしゃく}  
>  躊躇{ちゅうちょ}  
>  顰蹙{ひんしゅく}

These two are just plant/mineral names, but are also somewhat common/Jouyou
kanji:

> 薔薇{バラ}  
>  瑠璃{ルリ}

question
kanji word-requests terminology compounds
A name for common words that use uncommon kanji?
This is similar (though possibly a little different from): 当て字.

These are when kanji with (typically Chinese-style) pronunciation are used to
inform pronunciation (because most Japanese know the Chinese reading for the
characters used). Often times though, the meaning of the characters used may
have little or no relationship with the underlying meaning of the word written
in this fashion.

How about...  
「読めるけど書けない漢字」  
or maybe...  
「読めるけど書けない(二字)熟語」

such as:  
薔薇、憂鬱、蒟蒻、痙攣、葡萄、贔屓、曖昧、檸檬、麒麟、挨拶、絨毯、凱旋、潰瘍、魑魅魍魎
