Amaryllis ID Help Needed

Jacksonville, FL(Zone 9a)

Was wondering if you guys could help me with this wonderful amaryllis that I received in a trade last year. The person I got it from doesn't know what kind it is either.

I've pretty much narrowed it down to one of four kinds I think according to the plant files:

Piccolo - http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/140632/
Bright Star - http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/159283/
Naughty Lady (but I don't think it's dwarf... blooms are full sized) - http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/146214/
St. Joseph's Lily - http://davesgarden.com/guides/pf/go/56501/

Now here are some pictures of my plant....

Looks like my Johnsonii.

edited to add: This is an old passalong plant in the south and it has been much sought after lately.
