Default Vinca identification please

I've got 3 different Vincas in my garden but can't find what they are. Can
anyone here identify them?

Vinca1 : Purple flowers, slight variegation

Vinca2 : Purple flowers, stong variegation with golden edge to leaves

Vinca3 : Almost white flowers, no variegation

Thanks

Thanks both for that.

Are you sure about number 2? The pictures I found of it showed very grey
