We always call them elephant ears. Don’t know what the actual name is.

Looks like a young Alocasia Regal Shield. You should be able to tell (if) by the purple coloring underneath the leaves contrasting from the light green veins.

It looks like a colocasia

The leaves look thinner like a colocasia… try taking a picture and image searching using that picture on the Google app
