pvs, vgs, and lvs simply set up different defaults before entering the
same reporting engine.  One such default is what prefix to add to column
names that are supplied without any prefix.  If you request -o name,
vgs would turn that into 'vg_name' whereas pvs would turn it into
'pv_name', for example.

Use '-o help' (in sufficiently recent versions) to see the list of
fields.
