I guess I can name my noids anything I want to!! Look at some of the names the so-called professionals have come up with for the ID'd orchids.......like Phal Golden Peoker! Have you seen this one? It is white with Magenta splotches!! Very pretty, but nothing "Golden" about it! I think they could've been much more imaginative than that! What do you think?

What really worries me about that name is my wayward pronunciation propensity. If you're not really careful, the man with the golden arm could have another golden appendage.

Many registered names are derived from the parents .. sometimes it's part of both names ..
Sometimes they are named after people as to honor someone special be them living or deceased.
I think some hybridizers might anticipate the characteristics of a hybrid before it blooms and give it a name they 'think' would be appropriate.
Those silly orchid propagators ..
