I would call them: pretty 1 and pretty 2....

seriously though. Beautiful coral but I've got no names for you.

Yah except for a select few, acan names aren't really kept beyond the site that sells them (and even then, usually just named after the color(s) present or rainbow if more than 3). A rare exception would be something like a Holy Grail Acan. The one on the right looks awesome.

Well none of them are acans if you want to be technical. They are micro lords.
