It looks like a European Fan Palm. I have one in my front yard that I had put there 20 years ago. They are very hardy and easy to trim. Just keep trimming from the bottom to keep the fan type. It's slow growing and has several growth from the root. Keep whichever you want and it looks great. I have 3 and looks great. I trim mine at least once or twice a year.
