Top one is an iced Fairy cake, 2nd one is a butterfly cake, the deep one is a cup cake.
An original Queen cake is a Fairy cake with currants in.

I'd just call them cakes. If there was no icing at all, I'd call them fairy cakes. It's only really the last few years that people have started calling them cupcakes, before that cupcakes were only found in America.

My Nanna always used to make Queens cakes, my favourites. I used to look for the one with the most currants in.

Muffins or Muffin, is how we call them.
They get called cupcakes too, but very rarely.
