It is true that
La Verne Nursery sells Namwa as both Ice Cream and Namwa. The confusion started years ago when
their supplier
AgriStarts mistakenly started selling Dwarf Namwa and Standard Namwa tissue cultures under several different names.

Bananas are usually ID'd by several characteristics including coloration of mature pseudostem, petiole, leaf, inflorescence, and fruit. See the Wiki article
Plant Morphology on this site for terminology details.
At this point though, I'd say your plant looks exactly like Namwa that I've grown in multiple locations of near-coastal San Diego County.
