If talking about a section called "Assets" where these types of files are
stored, I've used "Library". Macromedia Dreamweaver uses the same.

Template and Layout, to me, are the same thing. I'd go with Template.

I use Versions but that may be my techy side coming out. 

To add to the list:

Snippet - a small piece of a page that can be re-used. (Like a table, or
callout, or whatever)
