Well, based on this page (http://www.imkerpedia.nl/wiki/index.php/Raammaten) (which is a pirate version of some other page whose URL I can't recall), the bigger frame you mention is a near perfect match for what the Germans call "Dadant [modifiziert], Brutraum" (lit. "Modified Dadant brood frame") and your smaller frame is a near perfect match for what they call the "Langstroth, flach, 2/3" (lit: "2/3-reduced Langstroth").
An 11 1/4" tall frame is a Dadant deep. A 6 1/4" frame is a medium or Illinois. I assume you are measuring from end bar to end bar and not the length of the top bar. That would be 17 5/8"
