Scott Michael's "Reef Aquarium Fishes" shows the first picture you have posted as a Lubbock's fairy wrasse.

Yeah Brett, that's definitely not a Laboutei.

I'm pretty sure the first one is a Lubbock's wrasse. Question is, what's the second one.

From what I found they are both lubbock wrasses. The first one is a striped lubbock and the second one is a multicoloured lubbock.
