Euphyllia glabrescens and Lobophyllia sp.; Trade names aren't really important

He wants trade name because he probably wants to know the exact type. Maybe because he is selling, trading etc.

Most corals don't have trade names or come from named lineages. I would say your torch is some sort of gold torch–don't know which type though. Your Lobo is an unnamed variety (Lobos generally don't get aquacultured in the hobby due to their slow growth rate), but there's a chance yours might be a carpet Lobo (L. flabelliformis), or it could be L. corymbosa or L. robusta.
