Maybe not! Perhaps they could be renamed to Golden Jubilee mugs for the next few months...

Are the "European" mugs called such, as they are manufactured in Europe, or because the design/style/size is considered European, or is just a name?

There was a discussion over the confusion of the name in this thread - http://www.dyesubforum.co.uk/vbforum/sh ... #post34945 - in which it was determined that "European" doesn't mean that it's made in Europe. In this instance, "European" just means "not-made-in-china" (a bit like Baldrick's definition of a dog ).

The design/style/size is essentially "Durham".

Whether or not the mug is made in China is a matter for the individually purchaser, but buying the "European mug" on the grounds that it's a European mug would be the wrong reason to buy. Buy it only because it's a good mug.
