Yes I know the paint/fabric/paper industries like to use poetic terms like "harvest moon maize" and "peacock blue" for selling there wares, but at the end of the day these fluffy labels convey very little information and don't help in making an informed decision.
i get what you're saying, but when the customer has a sample pack of the twill in front of him and the twill colours are named, it shouldn't be too difficult....
