There are two other alternatives:
-systemd-boot allows multiple versions of any operating system from a
single efi partition.  It has to be a little larger.
-If you have more than 1 disk you can put an EFI partition on the other
disk and use the BIOS boot menu to switch between the two EFIs as
default boot. Obviously not suitable for constant use, but if
occasionally another boot is required it isn't too bad.  I haven't
tried two EFI partitions on the same disk, but that might work also,
just by setting one as default in the BIOS.

I haven't tried the different label, I'll have to do some research and
experiment.
