Generally green onions, occasionally scallions.

They will always be green onions to me. That’s how I grew up.

scallops.
Just kidding - green onions or scallions.
Spring onions are onions harvested between green onion stage and completely grown onions. They have a green top and a mall bulb at the bottom.

Green onions here.
I've heard them called shallots many times, but that is not close to what a shallot is.

Those are definitely not shallots.
I call them green onions most of the time.

Green Onions but everyone around where I live calls them shallots.

Those look like cebollitas SR. I love grilling them when they are that size.

Green onions.
When I see a recipe calling them shallots, I find it confusing unless there's a reference to using the green or white parts or both.

Anyone who calls them shallots has never worked with shallots.

That would be about as correct as calling them garlic.

They're called shallots in cajun French.
It doesn't make sense, as scallions have a real French word, but there's a lot of things that don't make sense in cajun French.
