            // display a list of suggestions !
        }

Answer 1

First you create your menu of items you want to show like this

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<menu xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">

<item
android:id="@+id/first"
android:title="First Menu Item"/>

<item
android:id="@+id/second"
android:title="Second Menu Item"/>

<item
android:id="@+id/third"
android:title="Third Menu Item"/>

</menu>

Then in your Activity you create a PopupMenu

PopupMenu pm = new PopupMenu(MainActivity.this, pBtn);
    pm.getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.popup_menu, pm.getMenu());
    pm.setOnMenuItemClickListener(new PopupMenu.OnMenuItemClickListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onMenuItemClick(MenuItem item) {
            switch (item.getItemId()){
                case R.id.first:
                    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Clicked First Menu Item", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    return true;

                case R.id.second:
                    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Clicked Second Menu Item", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    return true;

                case R.id.third:
                    Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, "Clicked Third Menu Item", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                    return true;
            }

            return true;
        }
    });
    pm.show();

Finally you call this popup menu in your click listener

EDIT:

Create an ArrayList of String for example

ArrayList<String> popupItems = new ArrayList<String>();

Fill your arraylist with your data

Then you initialize your popupmenu with this array list

popupMenu = new PopupMenu(this, imageButton); 

Loop through your array add values to the popupmenu menu

for (int i =0; i < popupItems.size(); i++)
    popupMenu.getMenu().add(Menu.NONE, 1, Menu.NONE, popupItems.get(i))
