The yellow streaky bits could be like some of my lavenders had, a sort of brassy look? 

If one has feathery legs, perhaps that one is a araucanaxsilkie?  My 2 white silkies came from Cara via Joyfull, and they have similar shaped heads to your girls.  Also araucana/silkie crosses are quite popular now, is it because they make good broody Mums?  mmmm

If they are girls? hope so, they are lovely birds, realy cheeky and very nosy, only had them for just over a week and thay are nosing around in the kitchen. Thank you so much for putting pics up for me ann. Broodies... i have 21 bantams... how bad can it get, still have a roadie and pekin in the sin bin, been there for 3 days now and have given both a cold bum dunking every day, they love it, cant wait to get into the sink now.

Thank you i'm sure they will, i must stay away from auctions!!!

MMMMmm, auctions are bad places!!

Yes i agree, i went last year to the same one and to be fair there were some lovely birds there. Last year i went with a local breeder who new alot of the sellers, i got all of my 10 original girls there and all are great and still with me, this year i went alone, very silly, as i just dont have the experience to know what i'm doing, still, we live and learn.

My 3 black crosses I think are silkie/araucana crosses although they don't have feathery legs and yes they are great broodies  . I find silkie eggs seem to be more pointy at one end compared to other hens and my three when they do lay have very pointy eggs every time  .
Must admit when I go to Melton Mowbray auction I always take somebody with me so luckily I look but never buy 
As for the forth name - my what a mouthfull that will be when you have to call her

  yes it would be, might worry the neighbours to! have another 9 names to find for the new girls. will be posting pics of my silkies soon as i think they may be boys, but only going on the hairdo they have. The little partridge one is soooo cute.
