welcome to the world of doubt and confusion that comes with owning aloes Smiling I have collected aloe hybrids for a couple of years now and whilst i can spot many straight away there are many of my own plants where I am still working on ID's . There are so many hybrids of hybrids as well that you simply will never know Thumbs up
The first two I have no idea sorry. I have see the plants with Jurassic in the name Baja references and I think Jurassic spider is the closest match to your plant but i am not sure the markings look quite right.

Your third plant is probably one of the kelly griffen hybrids. there are few with similar leaf markings to that. Bright light tends to get them to color up so you can ID.
My guess would be pink blush , because its the most commonly available
See mine here

These tend to change colour throughout the year . You can see mine (and other peoples) in different stages of color on the database link
Aloe 'Pink Blush'
two other possibilities are aloe cv 'Peppermint' and 'Cleopatra' See he links to my plants here
Aloe 'Peppermint'


You last two are in the most difficult when it comes to IDs as these light green and white aloes are genuinely difficult to sort out and many growers have released very similar plants with lots of cv names. I have lots of white aloes I can sort easily (diego, shaved coconut, paul Hutchinson, quicksilver, blizzard, snowstorm, delta lights, i could go on Smiling ) but i have a few like yours that are not easy

For your third take a look at pics of aloe cv 'snowflake' or aloe 'rauhii snowflake' or aloe 'white beauty ' as possibilities .

Your forth is a plant i have and its been mas produced ( I think i read in Holland ) Aloe 'vincent' is being used recently
https://www.google.com/search?...

Your plants look great , i actually enjoy the process of looking at loads of pics of hybrids and trying to figure out what i bought. By doing this i often am able to piece together a best guess . Unless you buy direct from know sources such as Huntington you are often going to be doing this with this group of plants Thumbs up
