My vote would be for 'Tall Brazilian'. Do you have a photo of the male bud, and if possible, a close up of some fresh male flowers.

Gabe was cut off but I have posted previous fotos of the bud , I would have to find it, in the event it's a TB, is it worth keeping , is the fruit good ?

Thanks Ed

PS I have no idea how this TB ended up in my garden , I think I got it from Don as a 3640 the PS is really thin

Don't know how they taste grown in FL, but the fruit from Brazilian remains my overall favorite after having tried a few dozen types of bananas.
