Default When an orchid is selfed, what do you call the offspring?

This has been bugging me for a while and I feel maybe a bit silly for posting this but hey, I guess even those of us that aren't newbies still have newbie questions!

It's been on my mind for a while and I am probably way over thinking it. I have many seedlings that are the result of selfings and I am not totally sure about how they fit on the naming spectrum and adding the " x self" clutters up the tag and has me even more in a bind when it comes to crossing a selfed plant with another plant!

For example, I have a seedling Bc. Richard Mueller 'H&R' x self. Am I safe just calling it Bc. Richard Mueller? I assume you would essentially drop the clonal name since, even though it's a selfing, these are seedlings that may now express recessive genes or something like that. Down my rabbit hole even further - is it still a Richard Mueller?

On a similar token - if I was to cross two different Richard Mueller clones, would the resulting offspring also be Richard Muellers?

I feel like I know the answer to some of these but I second guess myself and I'm not hitting the right search terms on Google.

Thanks for putting me out of my misery!
