I think what's happening is they already chosen the colours to add and then went to give names for them and thought the ones chosen were close enough.
Naming colours is pretty hard if you have to go with FR's trend of one-word-names.
It doesn't bother me personally but I see many here who don't agree. The only colour here that I found the name strange for is 'Metals' and that's not because the colour doesn't match the name. Other than that I could not care less as to what each colour is named. I only really care about the colours themselves.

Not to mention there's often a difference between color names and whatever the names are based on. Actual eggplants may be a lot darker, but the [i]color[/i] aubergine is much lighter. The FR color is almost identical to my markers with the same name.
