Assume these would be Hat/Hot Panama/Homburg, as they are named for the
foreign places they came from and don't seem to have alternatives?

Yes, Hat Hir sounds exactly right and 'user friendly' as a term! 

What about a panama which I have proudly been wearing, having edged into
respectable middle age, for the first time this 'summer'? 

I also fancy a homburg , following Hercules Poirot's impeccable style!
However I nearly collapsed at the price of these in Lock's of london!

In a story I am writing I have been using hat hir (or hot hir) - because I
like the alliteration (and I like short words!).
