Mergress ID needed

Pretty Pink Fairy Princess.
Not being an expert in these things, I need the experts to help me. I have 4 Mergresses that were donated to me for the Active Duty PIF and I'm not sure about the proper name for 2 of them. I have 2 of the ones on the left and 2 of the ones on the right. The handles of both are the same length, approx. 47mm from top ring to bottom ring. I think they are both the original short handle Progress conversions. Is the long knob Mergress the XL, or is the XL a converted Long Handle Progress? Thanks for any help you can give

A Mergress XL is a Progress with the long Mergress knob.

I would say that the long-handled Progress that was converted would be called a "long-handled Mergress."
 
Thanks, James, that's what I needed to know

No problem, Georg. Here are some posts by Eric just to make sure I was correct. Notice how he calls it a long-handle and the name of the razor at Lee's Razors is "Mergress Long Handle Safety Razor."
