Default What variety would be the Caribbean plantain?

I've found a lot of varieties that are Asian plantains, but what variety would be for plantains you'd find in the Caribbean? Jamaica, etc?

I've done a bit of research, and the "true" plantains you find in the Caribbean are known as "French Horn" type. Cultivars Mbang Okon, Batard, and "3 vert". Anyone heard of these before or have these?
