Well, my silly question is, "Are these jigs or fixtures?"

And my silly answer is:

If they are moving in 3/4 time, to a fairly fast tempo, they are
prolly Jigs. At a slower tempo they might be Waltzes. If the 3/4 is
further tortured to a 6/8 and sprightly done (with more than one), a
Tarantella.

Don't forget about slip-jigs, reels, airs, slow airs, marches, strathspeys,
strathspey airs & polkas
