I think that the platforms came from Perranporth Beach Halt. As far as the names go, I would guess Falmouth Docks and The Dell.

Not sure about the second part but opened as The Dell, was renamed Falmouth when it became the terminus of the line and Falmouth Town after the original terminus reopened as Falmouth Docks.
