The names are arbitrary.

Interestingly in all languages colours are named in order. First the difference between black and white is noticed. After that red is named, followed closely by green. Blue and yellow are distinguished next followed by purple, orange and brown in various orders. In Russian light blue and dark blue are treated as separate colours. Similarly to the treatment of pink in English.
