It is called the "shank" and some times the "shoulder".

This part of the bolt can be critical in certain applications such as a head bolt on an engine. It is often sized to create a slight interfearence fit that locates the 'subject' of its purpose-as in a ball joint or tie rod connection. Be wary of the bolts dimensions in this reguard as it can be dangerous if not properly mated.

It's called the 'shoulder' of the bolt. (I have also heard it called the 'shank' or the 'shaft')
