The naming is not consistent. As Wikipedia puts it,

This article follows usage in the United States. Readers in most other countries should read "two-way" or "SPDT" for the United States "three-way"; and "intermediate", "crossover" or "DPDT" switch for the United States "four-way".

The switches I'm using are marked with cute "ON/ON" labels which I suppose could be a metaphor for something.

If you rock it up to a switch, then as the wiring diagram shows: (N)ot gonna (L)ie, (MCB) My Curious Bro, a 3 way gang-bang is pretty gay.

Edit: on an unrelated note, if the neutral wire comes from the light rose and not the switch itself as shown above then you're gonna need a switch that handles live wires only. In the UK a lot of the newer houses now have the neutral wire in the switch, but before then many UK houses were very gay with the wiring.
