You're at a loss for a few things; as in - what other strings are being played? Just these 3?

Here are the conjectures you can tie in. I'm going to assume all other strings to be open if used.

Your high E is either F or E (hammer on doesn't tell me which you want in the chord)

So your options for that first chord are (from low note to high note):

E A D A C e
X X X . . f

And therefor:

E-A-D-A-C-e = A minor add 4(11) / E
E-A-D-A-C-f = D minor 7 / E

E-A-x-A-C-e = A minor / E
E-A-x-A-C-f = F Major / E (F Major 7, 3rd inversion)

E-x-D-A-C-e = A minor add 4 / E
E-x-D-A-C-f = D minor 7 / E

E-x-x-A-C-e = A minor / E
E-x-x-A-C-f = F Major / E

x-A-D-A-C-e = A minor add 4(11)
x-A-D-A-C-f = D minor 7 / A

x-A-x-A-C-e = A minor
x-A-x-A-C-f = F Major / A

x-x-D-A-C-e = A minor / D
x-x-D-A-C-f = F Major / D

x-x-x-A-C-e = A minor
x-x-x-A-C-f = F Major

Next chord-
Now that i think about it, I guess it's just a C major chord without the c note on A string
That was easy enough.

Next chord-
High e string: open
B string: first fret (c note)
G string: open
D string: open
A string: second fret (b note)
You could argue this is a CMajor9 (CΔ9) / B (or E, if you use your low string open) though it might be easier to call it a Cadd9 over B.

Groovy chord choices man.
