In the Mid-West of the United States, it was common that older farmer folks would call the noon meal dinner. For them, it was a formidable meal keeping them going all day while they worked the land.
Then, after they got home from working and the family gathered around the table they had supper. They really had no idea what lunch was.
For city folk, it was much more common to have lunch in the middle of the working day and then have dinner after arriving home. If they were better off they might eat a late evening meal called supper. I'm sure that was common in Europe as well.
Nowadays if I am referring to the meal in the middle of the day it is lunch. The meal later, after work is over, is called either dinner or supper. It is interchangeable.
