Oh, yes, I remember making fun of those color terms--I've also, in my time, mentioned emerald and obsidian and silver-gilt and amber--but only because I hate using flowery color descriptors to describe characters' eyes.
Although I'm very fond of Young Pea, still. I like to think of Harry's eyes as being that color.
