Default What Crestie morph?

I have this lovely wee crestie, and am soooo confused by morphs!

Can anyone shed light on what he is, I'm torn between flame and harlequin but to be honest despite reading the descriptions of both I'm more confused than ever!

harlequin is usually always accompanied with flame, so instead of calling it flame harlequin you just say harlequin.
to classify it, yours is a harlequin dalmation, with some strainge red partial pinstripe round the head
never seen red pinning before, you usually get white or usa had dark.
the colourings to varied to classify a colour morph

lovely crestie by the way, hope my answer has helped

flame shouldn't have patterned limbs and should have reduced patterning on the flanks. I think the term pinstripe is becoming misused by some...
