Muffin or Barmcake.
Teacakes have raisens.
Rolls should be roll shaped - ie longer than they are wider.
Buns are sweet.
Baps....well you not what they are.
Manchester/Lancashire.

Here in lancashire they have ovenbottom cakes which to me coming from the south is a white soft roll. Now a barm is a large flat roll and a teacake is only a teacake if it has currants in and is meant to be toasted if you are from the south. Now there are several rolls in lancs; there are crusty cobs but in the south it is a bridge roll and a bun is just a white soft roll in Lancashire but it has sugar on and possibly currants in the south.
But I really prefer small ciabatta rolls made with olive oil just to be different. My book on the subject comes out next week LOL.

IS "it" a roll...etc? by way of "it", do you mean a small, around formed style of bread? in case you do, this is in many cases talked approximately as a roll...or a bap particularly factors (at the same time with Wales, the place i'm from). Or a cob in different factors of the rustic. A bun is frequently a roll that we call a bun as quickly as we use it for, as an occasion, enclosing a burger...till this is a candy bun, while this is in many cases a bread roll/bun coated with a candy glaze or containing dried fruit at the same time with currants. i've got by no capability heard of a breadcake yet a Barmcake is a candy cake, like countless cake (or sponge!). incredibly, it style of feels to return all the way down to the place you reside and what the object is talked approximately as colloquially. This exists everyhere interior the international and not purely for foodstuffs. Is a warm canines a heated canines?!

Bread roll for me, although I have friends who call them teacakes and I understand its the same thing. Bun is maybe just specifically for burgers I think. Barm is new to me though!

I'm in Lancashire and it's a barm here. A teacake has currants in and you toast it!
When I live down south however it was a roll then!
