actually....

they are somewhat cake like, and one could make an actual cake from them I suppose

I however, am more curious about the origins of "waffles"

Well for starters, saying pan bread is as dumb as saying naan bread.

It's definitely a cake-like batter cooked in a pan.

Don't confuse ICO. He's very likely never set foot in a kitchen before since his mom makes all his meals for him to this day.

According to Wikipedia they're also called hotcakes, griddlecakes, or flapjacks.

Strange that there's only one name without any mention of cake.
