Ye, first two are the same thing under different names for marketing reasons. They're equivalent mixed breeds. They may or may not lay blue or have muffs etc. Maybe chances are better the americanas lay blue and have muffs... Maybe. I mean you can convince yourself that if you wanna spend more. But the reality is there's no functional difference.
The third is its own breed with a set of specific standards it's bred to and while it shares some traits visually with some EEs (namely the beard and muffs), it's not one. A Faverolle lays medium light brown eggs, they have five toes per foot instead of four, they have feathered feet, a thicker neck puff, and are larger than your average easter egger. They are also salmon - a specific color variety - so they probably will all look about the same. A faverolle will never lay a blue, green egg or a dark brown egg and will never have the clean legs and longer form of an easter egger.

Basically the only thing they have in common is being an egg breed with beards and muffs.
 
I know right btw how come the Easter egger pictures look diffrent is one a off spring on a amercauna and one of the off spring of a arucaunas

No, they're just different colors. I highly doubt a hatchery will use an araucana in their EE or other mixed breed pens. Araucana are really rare, and quite expensive. Also, at times difficult to breed.
