Some growers in N. California do sell Momataro as "Peach Boy"
I don't know if it is because they want an English name, or they are being cagey about what variety they are selling (It has been used in dry-farming as a replacement for Early Girl, in part because of an aversion to Early Girl now that the variety is owned by a Monsanto company).
