Do not know the name, but it is pretty common here in FL.
 

I think those are pyracantha. My mom had those in Charlotte. The cedar waxwings came every yr and ate them.
 

Looks to me like 'winterberry' (Ilex verticillata) which is a member of the holly family, although it's deciduous and the leaves don't have spikes (although they're often weakly serrated around the edges). Pyracantha berries have a prominent calyx (not seen on any of the berries in your pictures), but winterberries don't.

They do the same thing with the holly bushes out front.
