Capsicum annuum L. specifically Akamu, Kaiki, Kalani, Kaolin e Moke from Isla® seeds. Reference: https://www.mdpi.com/2311-7524/7/9/287
Isla seeds doesn't stock them anymore and those names combined with "pepper" doesn't bring up anything.

All sweet, no spicy. About 1/4 the volume of a regular bell pepper.
I'm asking for the real name of the peppers so I can find the seeds and grow them.
a good place to get the seeds are from the peppers. sorry I don't know the name though.
Not if they're hybrids.
I don't have an answer but I've had success growing them from seeds saved from when I've bought them at the grocery store. This year I'm going to test out Healthy peppers, no idea how similar they'll be.
Good to know - I'm trying this for the first time this year.
Any luck with growing second generation seeds from the plants you grew?
I haven't tried that yet since I had so many seeds from the grocery store lot.
Maybe it's a gypsy pepper.
Gypsy peppers, botanically classified as Capsicum annuum, are a hybrid variety belonging to the Solanaceae or nightshade family. The peppers are also known as Cubanelle peppers, and are a hand-bred cross between a sweet pepper and a bell pepper. Gypsy peppers are a popular home garden variety in the United States, favored for their thin skin, sweet flavor, and ability to be harvested at any stage in maturity.

Are they talking about “sports” peppers?
Seems like these are a hybrid between a bird pepper and a bell. https://www.specialtyproduce.com/produce/Bell_Peppers_Mix_Mini_Sweet_2662.php Looks like people are growing them from the red seeds.

I did just come across these which look to be the same thing I buy at the grocery store: https://www.johnnyseeds.com/vegetables/peppers/sweet-peppers/lunchbox-pepper-mix-organic-snack-pepper-seed-3515G.html
Looks right to me. Thanks.
