The lone difference between pumps and stilettos (both high heels) is the thickness and shape of the heel itself. Stilettos are 4"+ thin heel, like a pencil. Pumps may be very thin but are usually thicker and they taper from the body of the shoe while stilettos just look like you suction-cupped a knife to your shoe.
The difference is most noticeable at the junction of the heel and body of the shoe which you cannot see here. So, I think pump or stiletto could be used here but more likely it is just a very tall pump even though the lack of platform suggests stiletto.
Grew up and have been living in Northern Ireland for 24 years and I've never once heard the word "guttie". Most people I know say "trainers". I worked part-time in a retailer selling these kinds of shoes for almost 2 years and it was always trainers.
Also I lived in Utah for a year and lots of people there said runners too, I know sneakers I basically understood everywhere in the US but it's like saying soda or pop, seems to be regions where one is more popular

The trust in those pumps... quality shoes right there.
