Default Is Apple, Manzano, Brazilian, Pome and Silk the same cultivar

Hello there,
a friend of mine has just recently got a pup that was labelled as Manzano. Since I didn't know this cultivar (I had heard the name before, but didn't really care), I would like to ask, for a better picture:

Is Manzano also the cultivar carrying the name Apple, Pome, Silk and Brazilian? Or are there some differences?

I looked at we be bananas and they were all listed as the same. In that case, if I have Dwarf Brazilian, can I say, that it's the smaller version of Manzano with appropriatelly smaller fruit or is it from different cultivar?

WE BE BANANAS say:

Quote:
APPLE
Manzano, Monzano, Manzana (Sp.), Silk, Silk Fig, Pome, Hawaiian, Brazillian, Pisang Rastali, Maca, Sugar (028)
Thanks for any input. Just care to know, what it actually is, this nomenclature of bananas gives me a headache.
Brazilian = Pome = Silk = Apple = Manzano?
