The Harvard Concise says that originally (c. 1675-1725), acciaccatura was the crush, but it did not have a special notation. The others are all called appoggiatura. The slashed grace note notation was invented in the 19th century, and some came to incorrectly call them acciaccatura. Lilypond propagates this misconception with \acciaccatura.
