Is there a special name for a ramekin?

[*crikey*mate*]

just little bowls to put your mustards and sauces etc in for on the dinner table?

I've got a white dinner set with gold edges, and trying to find matching dishes etc - I just know them as ramekins, but is there a special name?

Thanks

There are some listed under 'sauce boat.' and some under 'gravy boat' but I don't know if the are exactly what you are looking for. They are an oval shape with a handle and  pouring lip

i only have ramekins because they say Martin Boyd on the bottom, i dont use them for anything. maybe the  meaning has changed  with time.

I found a white wedgewood gravy/sauce boat with under dish, but it doesn't have the gold rim.

My other dinnersets have actual little pots with lids and stuff, but I never knew what to call them except for pots LOL
