The tooltip is the reason to give colors a good name. Today we have "Green 1"
(untranslatable) which could be "Libre Green". The names are part of the soc
file, a reference to some po might be possible. 

This is how we call our colors today:
Green 0, Green 1 (LibreOffice Main Color), Green 2, Green 3, Green 4
Blue 0, Blue 1, Blue 2, Blue 3, Blue 4
Orange 0, Orange 1, Orange 2, Orange 3, Orange 4
Purple 0, Purple 1, Purple 2, Purple 3, Purple 4
Yellow 0, Yellow 1, Yellow 2, Yellow 3, Yellow 4
Green Accent, Blue Accent, Orange Accent, Purple Accent, Yellow Accent

"Libre Green" (or "Green 1") is our primary color and we define how to call it.
Other palettes do the same, actually have even more speaking names like sunbeam
(Breeze: yellow), navy (HTML: blue), or chocolate medium (Tango: ?). Meaning
the proposed "Pale Green" (Green 4) could also be just "Beryll".

Use case for the proposal is beside the intention to be kind to the user the
gray scale palette. You color an object with 40% gray and want to have the same
color later. Would you find it easily? Or do you remember a better label like
"Granite"?
