Is there a name for the SureServo motor mount dimensions? Like IEC, 56C, etc.? The dimensions don't seem to fit any of the standard servo mounting adapters. I'd like to mount them to SEW Eurodrive gear reducers but the dimensions don't match their servomotor adapters.

Great question. Servo motor mounting "standards " have many origins (original machine tool origins, NEMA (USA - not common), IEC (Europe - more common), and Japanese metric standards (more common).
Due to the large variety of servo motor dimensions, the gearhead providers have become very skilled at accomodating servo motors. It is usually best to provide them with the motor dimensions and they will provide the gearhead adaptor very quickly and cost effectively. Often, the adaptor cost is already included in the base price within certain boundaries.

I also noticed this in a recent application. I was not able to use these servos due to mechanical motor dimensions.
