They are all correct, in different countries and in different parts of the United States.

Dinner is the main meal of the day on Sundays, but it is usually served right after church...around 2 p.m. I should have added, dinner is also served as a more formal evening meal.

Luncheon, or lunch, is usually whatever can be crammed in on the noon break at work, and supper is similar to dinner, but is more of a country term. My mother always used the word, "supper" to describe our evening meal.

In the UK, Tea or High Tea is served in the afternoon or early evening and is a casual meal of sandwiches, possibly soup, and dessert. Similar to a casual supper in the USA.

Breakfast lunch dinner. My great grandmother said breakfast dinner and supper and I've never heard anyone else say that.
@Spoiledbrat it’s a county thing.

My family has always had breakfast - dinner -supper
When I was a kid, breakfast, lunch and supper. We only went out for dinner (rarely) or had Sunday dinner instead of lunch.

@Mamapolo2016 Hugs, sista!!
Breakfast, dinner and supper. I’m country.

Breakfast - Big meal, get ready for the day.

Dinner - Noon day, and biggest meal of the day to carry you til sundown.

Supper - Smallest meal. Light snack, little after sundown to help send you to sleep.
