They just vary the names. All signs are blue with white lettering. I
don't know if there is a sysyem in the color names. My knowledge of
those names is almost non-existant so I don't know if a green-street
near the blue quadrant has a blue-hue and one near the red quadrant is
semi-purple.

No, why? What color would be associated with a university? Actualy, if
I remember correctly, it's black. That must be a conspiracy, cause
most streets in Holland are black.
