Default new to peppers and overwhelmed

SO many names and so many varieties. I just want a few...as in very few...seeds of a few varieties for sautéing and stuffing..NOT hot, and NOT bitter, but large enough to go with eggplant or be stuffed...that's the limit of my knowledge of uses except in salsa.

So far, with just my meager efforts, I have identified Carmen sweet, giant Marconi, big bertha, shishoto , Anaheim , and poblano. I just hate bitterness and the wife will not eat them hot.

Have I come close. I love it when they are sweet, and hate it when they are bitter, like most of the plants of bells you find in the big box stores.

If I could find a source where you could purchase fewer seeds, that would be ideal.

Guidance appreciated as I just want a few of each. Wish they could adopt a standard in naming as they all seem so similar like the Hatch, Numex, and Anaheim....and then you get into fresh or roasted.

I just want to start a few seeds for cooking ...which is either sautéed, with Eggplant, or mild salsa. Preferably those that will stand up to conditions in GA. Thanks
