Sprekelia, Maltese Cross Lily or Jockey's Cap ?

 At this time of the year these lilies always make a welcome appearance, however what to call them? I always stick to the name Sprekelia, but I have heard them called by at least 2 different names.
Although spectacular to look at, they are very hardy and multiply year after year. I can't bear to throw any of the bulbs out, so I have them in the garden and in pots and troughs all over the place.
