The green and orange looks like a mummy eye chalice.

Pavona

The green and orange looks like a mummy eye chalice.

Mummy Eye

The word brain coral is a catch description for dozens of unrelated corals.

The first looks like a mummy eye. As other posts above mentioned.

The really puffy green. Looks like a trachyphyllia or a Lobophyllia.

The hairy green one looks like a cactus pavona. Not to be confused with a mint pavona. The cactus is a high light variety. Most other pavona are low light.

The Christmas one is a favia type. There are dozens of favias. The exact type is hard to determine. But care is the same.

Couple more pics
Going a little bit greener
Not sure if I should move it down more in the tank , seems to be happy enough when feeding at night
Iv another chalice frag lower down that is changing from brown to green
Do you think I should move it lower or wait at bit
Last pic is the other frag I'm talking about
Thanks
