Coeur de Toro looks like a development of Coeur de Boeuf and Zebrino looks like a Red Zebra  but otherwise I don't recognise any of the names.

Many tomatoes are "international" eg our "Pineapple" is the french variety Annanas... potato Leaf White takes some translating as well... we'll get DebP onto it!!  ;D
