What is the hamburger menu icon called and the three vertical dots icon called?

Google and some other developers have introduced us to what some have called the hamburger menu button and now the 3 vertical dots button or vertical ellipsis. What is the official name of these buttons/icons?

It would be nice if developers could consistently use a particular icon for menus. It would also be nice to know what to tell novice users to press.

Background Info:

Horizontal Ellipsis … … … …
Apple uses the horizontal ellipsis and calls it the More Options icon.
According to https://design.google.com/icons/ the icon is called "more horiz".

Vertical Ellipsis ⋮ ⋮ ⋮ ⋮
Google+ for desktop seems to use this as a menu for communities. The Google+ app uses this icon as a standard menu icon.
According to https://design.google.com/icons/ the icon is called "more vert".

Identical To ≡ ≡ ≡ ≡
Google Chrome uses an image similar to Identical To and calls it the Chrome menu.
It has also been called the "hamburger" icon, "hotdog" icon, Options menu, Menu button, Overflow menu, Side menu, Menu drawer...
According to https://design.google.com/icons/ the icon is called "menu".


Look at this photo, it says "Kebab Menu" is a correct answer:

According to Reddit, more options icon and kabob menu are popular names. I prefer the latter as it goes well with hamburger menu.
