Go ahead and give them their own special name. It will be hard to find it's appropriate name. They look familiar, like the ones bought at a box store which they are mass produced and interbred with who knows what genre. Though they are nameless they are gorgeous. Great buy  |

I love the idea of naming them yourself.
I'm trying to come up with one for mine...so I can personalize it a little more to myself / bond with it...in hopes of taking better care of it....not that I neglect just that I forget.  |

They could be what they are calling 'Little Lady' Phalaenopsis which is a brand name - Check out this past thread - MINI PHAL. ???
Check out Sogo's website - There is a pageful there - Minis
(Check out some of the other pages at the Sogo site - Loads of phal flower photos  )

I have a mini phal very similar to your yellow plant. I have attached 2 photos (I also find it VERY difficult to photograph!!) my plant has slightly more magenta "veining" to the flowers than yours but I found that the flowers changed with age. Not sure if they are exactly the same but may give you an idea.
My plant is tagged P. Sogo Gotris
hope that helps

They seem to be what is currently sold at almost every european super market as "Little Lady" Phalaenopsis. This is a registered trade name, and so far I have read, it can be almost everything (within the mine Phals, I mean). Even some nurseries sell them under this name (I asked one and they are not allowed to sell them without it) and I think they even won a horticultural prize somewhere in Europe (last year I think) |
