Can someone name the fruit in the pictures?

Here in El Salvador we call it paterna but if I literally translate it means something related to father as in paternal X obviously it's not what I'm looking for. So if someone knows the name of it please be kind enough to share it with me.

I'm not sure about this, but Wikipedia refers to this fruit as the "Inga". This is a little-known fruit (I'm assuming), so you'll probably not need to use this fruit much. When talking to anyone, just call it an 'Inga' or 'Inga fruit'.

Hope this helps, and good luck with your English!
