Words for meals in English are:

breakfast: first meal of the day, eaten in the morning

lunch: a meal eaten around noon

supper: a meal eaten in the evening

dinner: the biggest meal of the day. For most Americans that’s the same as supper, though some people have their big meal at lunch time and so call that dinner.

brunch: a meal too late to normally be called breakfast and too early to be lunch, and/or which takes the place of breakfast and lunch.

There is no commonly-used word for a late lunch or early dinner or supper. Dinner times vary pretty widely. A big meal eaten anywhere between about 5:00 pm and 10:00 pm would routinely be called supper or dinner and no one would consider that strange. People sometimes say «we had an early dinner» or «we eat supper late» to distinguish.

I have been hearing the term «linner» a lot around me lately (Boston, USA) to mean «lunch» joined with «dinner».

Example :

I didn’t eat breakfast until about 11.30 because I’ve started getting
up a bit later. So mid-afternoon lunch is the last time I’ll eat
before my 8.20 show, and technically counts as dinner as well. Call it
linner or dunch. It’s usually a quick sandwich.

Alternatives: luner, lunner and lupper.

Note that the word dunch has a different meaning:

A small meal between lunch and dinner in the late afternoon or early
evening (about 3-5 p.m.), usually including tea or coffee with
cookies, sometimes fruits, a salad or a light sandwich.

«For tomorrow, I have already scheduled lunch and dinner with my colleagues. Let’s have a dunch together.»

I believe that none of those words are in any official dictionary though, only proposed:

    As part of my work contract, I (in theory at least) get a one-hour meal period. If I were working in the middle of the night, I would call that time «meal» rather than «lunch» (as in «I have meal at 0200»), but if I were working during daylight hours, I would tend to call that meal «lunch.» Thus, suppose I start work at 11 in the morning, and I work until 7:30 in the evening. I plan on having dinner around 9 or 10 P.M. after I get home from work. If I am busy and do not get a chance to have my meal period until 4 or 5 in the afternoon, I would (and in fact do) call both the time period itself the egg salad sandwich or lamb gyro I consume at that time a «late lunch.» (For example, suppose I am walking out of my workplace at 5 P.M., and a co-worker says «Are you done for the day?», I would probably reply «No, I’m taking a very late lunch.»)
