There was a Panama Yellow too, which was the finish on Mk3 Zephyr 6 air filters. I think some of the colours which seem to have changed name go back to the early 1950s where colours were given British place-names to tie in with the Festival of Britain in 1951 and the 1953 Coronation. Austin had a handful of similarly-themed shades. Possibly when the original names were changed the paint composition was changed too, affecting the final shade.
