I bought this with a name tag that read armeniacum. It is clearly not. My forst thought when it opened is that it was Kevin Porter. Am I right?

not quite! My guess is that there's niveum (most certainly) and/or emersonii involved as well.
 
It's not Kevin Porter. I'm afraid you've got yourself some sort of complex NoID. It could have a number of species in it's background including niveum and maybe emersonii as Johg Boy suggested. It could also have some bellatulum or other Brachy species in there too. The markings on the dorsal and petals as well as the colour and to some degree, the shape of the staminode shield indicate that there could be some micranthum genes in there. I am certain that it's not a primary hybrid. However, being some sort of complex hybrid means that you'll likely never get an accurate identification.
