For the sake of being concise and consistent, shouldn’t Trans-Light Bright Green
be Trans-Lime? The color that Trans-LBG corresponds to is officially called “Transparent
Bright Yellowish Green” (Lime on BL being TLG Bright Yellowish Green). If Trans-Very
Light Blue was changed to Trans-Aqua, shouldn’t the same be done here? It’s a
bit of a mouthful to read anyway, and Trans-Lime is more correct. There are some
other colors this case can be made for, but it’s the longest name that doesn’t
need to be as long as it is.

The admin team have decided against changing this name because it does not truly
resemble a transparent version of lime.
