Color help please and thanks.

Hey guys, total rookie and new to the forum so please bare with me.

It's time for paint and I'm having a hard time pin pointing exact colors. I've looked at so many different chevy color charts and they all look different, even when the color has the same name. I found some websites with all the colors but when they show an image of the vehicle, it never seems to match the sample. Anyways, here's a few colors I like. Found most of these on this forum so hoping someone can tell me what they are and what year because I'm not sure if the color changed with the year even if it kept the same name. I think It might be ( not in order of pics) light blue, light green, crystal turquoise and obviously another shade of blue that I can't figure out. Also, anyone know what shade of white was used on the two tone? Thanks in advance!

Hey thanks brother. I'm familiar with that site. It seems like the sample color they show never matches the vehicle though.

It's hard to get color match via pictures.

The last Suburban you have pictured is actually mine. I went and had it color matched because it needs a re paint. The color came out to Chevy truck Brigade blue or AMC Big Bad Blue
