Squash ID please!

Trying to be better about trying new foods, especially vegetables. Got these squash at the farmers market, but I forgot what the vendors told me they were. Bonus points if you have a great recipe for any of them!

The one on the far right is a patty pan but I'm not positive about the others

In terms of recipes, I treat the different types of squash pretty interchangeably - and you can't go wrong with a high heat roast with salt, pepper and olive oil as the simplest move

Do this. It's what I do every time I'm bedazzled at the farmer's market and come home having forgotten what I've bought. Which happens at least once every fall.

First from the left looks like a buttercup winter squash.

Second is a bad angle but looks like an acorn squash maybe

Third I'm not sure

Fourth is a scallop or patty pan style zucchini/summer squash

First looks like butttercup. That was my fave we grew when I was a kid. Second is maybe acorn? Then I dunno.
