Evening meal is dinner (if out) or supper (if home), according to my parents.
Unless you have guests, when it's dinner at home, too.

Oh god, I forgot about supper. I sometimes but rarely use that.

Supper's usually the last meal of the day
Dinner being the main meal of the day and lunch being a light jobbie between breakfast and dinner. Hence the interchangeability of dinner between afternoon and evening meals.

I usually say supper.

Edit: But that's just because I think dinner sounds horribly prole-ish.

If I'm having my main meal in the evening
it's breakfast, lunch, dinner; if I'm having it in the middle of the day it's breakfast, dinner, tea.

Simple!
