Hmm.  So far, 'we' haven't really tried to deliberatly name anything.[1] So
prior efforts may not be a good guide for future endevours.

I feel like the common color names are getting over-used.  How many
different kinds of green has LEGO made?  On Suzanne's color chart
http://www.baseplate.com/colors/, there are 9 different variations of green
and near-green colors.  After awhile, there's only so many ways you can say
"sorta green".

I think "verdigris" is a good choice.
