What is กล้วยน้ำว้า in English? A Google search in Thai was inconclusive. 

 

One site said “Ducasse banana” but seemed unsure of itself. I would like to know the name of this banana cultivar in English.

They're a cultivar that originated in Thailand, but are now found across SE Asia.  In the West they are usually referred to as "nam wah" bananas - nam wah being a direct transcription of the Thai name.
