Can anyone tell which squashes these are?   I planted the following:-

                                       Blue Banana
                                       Crowns prince
                                       Alghani
                                       White volunteer

Not all the seeds germinated.   Thanks.

The first picture is not Blue Banana and not Crown Prince and not White volunteer.  I am not familiar with Alghani, so it might be than one.

White Volunteer is very pale green, maturing to white. Banana is zeppelin shaped right from the start.  It does not look like crown prince either, although it would help seeing a picture of the blossom end to be absolutely certain.

I have never heard of the Algani, bu there is one often called Afghani which is a description rather than an actual name.It is the name given to any small sweet pumpin that is used to make a specific Afghania dish would look like the number 1 when immature. so the recipe might read

1 Afghani pumpkin..

when in fact it could be any small sweet pumkin common to Afghanista
And yours does look like an immature small pumkin

Do you hqave more pictures
