In my opinion it is important not only a shape of peppers but more important is, for recipes, if peppers are hot or sweet.
"Kozi roh" - Goat Horn is hot pepper and Banana and spp. (type, hybrids) are sweet.
Goat Horn - the fruit is long/longer/prolonged and slim/-mer, not as Bell boy or Banana, which are sweet and chubbier if you wish.

Chili pepers are mostly small in size and hot.

long green pepper


Explanation:
Just an idea.

...or Anaheim chili (or pepper)/California green chili/chili verde.
Long Green: (Hatch - New Mexican - Anaheim) chili. Fruit are from 4 - 12" long & 2" wide, green to red at maturity, but also may be yellow, orange to brown. Many different varieties abound. Range from sweet to hot. Used green as fresh, canned or frozen. Mature are usually dried and ground into chili powder or paprika if sweet. Also used in salsas.

Kozi roh pepper


Explanation:
If you want to get botanical/scientific about it, 'kozi roh' (minus diacritics) is actually the registered name for this type of pepper, but if this is for a menu, then pickled (goat horn) peppers or similar would be just fine IMO. When they arrive on the plate or, even better, on a wooden board alongside a vepřové koleno, it should be obvious :)

I'm with Scott on this one - they are usually described as 'hot', but I have yet to have a properly hot one (and I must have had hundreds of the things)

banana peppers


Explanation:
Wiki lays it out pretty clearly...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banana_pepper
What stands out for me is that the heat depends on the maturity, i.e. earlier picked pecks of peppers aren't so piquant (but can be pickled :). That jibes with my note about heat in discussion...


The shape is the main corresponding factor here.
this is a pretty darn good look at the banana pepper...

The product I think we can all agree is like this one from Hame:

THIN BANANA PEPPERS: After mulling it over I thought of this. If I were to explain to somebody for instance from North America what these here in Central Europe are, the closest FEEL for these peppers and thus the best translated MEANING would be thin banana peppers. That's the shape. That's the taste and heat too. BPs come a bit more acidic, but that's the brine.

disagree  Maria Chmelarova: banana peppers are shorter and more wide
7 mins
  -> Wider kdyz tak....ban. peps. do tend to be wider, and usually come cut into rings...but are as long. Not same cultivar (Capsicum annuum has many: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capsicum_annuum), but it's the best way to explain it, and highly similar taste.

agree  Gerry Vickers: near as dammit :)
