Default The Rounder Gros Michel?

The Thais call the below banana Kluai Hom Thong, or Gros Michel.




Yet they also call this one Kluai Hom Thong (the hangers, not the nam was below):



The top one is fatter and rounder than the one below. They also taste different.

The one below is not a cavendish, as far as I can tell.

So what are these? The inexactitude of the names is kind of annoying.

Anyone?

Thanks.
