WHAT'S IN A NAME ANYWAY

I've always wondered how car manufacturers come up with names for their car colors. Sometimes the name is not so bad but the color it represents.....YIKES! Some car colors aren't bad looking but they're given a name which most of the time makes no sense to us common folk. Below are a few choice selections of what I think are some ridiculous and/or downright unattractive colors/names.
Can you guess who each manufacturer is?

Verdant Green
Pale Brodgar
Ginger Ale
26.2 Yellow
Saharan Stone
Storm Front Gray
Umbria Twilight
 Lakeshore Slate
 Sizzling Crimson
 Noble Spinel
 Peridot
 Rhodium Silver
 Orkney Grey
 Bourneville
 High Class Gray
Ensign Red

    While working for a manufacturer, I jokingly complained to a coworker about how ridiculous the names of some of the colors have become, specifically noting one particular color. He responded "oh, my wife's department came up with that name."
