I agree on the trade names, a snow should be an Anerythristic X Albino but unfortunately the gene that best expresses what we think of as albino the T-, was discovered after the lavender albino so we have to contend with that. We also have a second gene that expresses Anerythristic, so the common morphs using strain “A” can also be recreated using strain “B” with similar results to the phenotype. This further complicates identification.

I think as far as finding trade names, looking to the other species to find interesting names is a good idea. Corns alone have 15 different color traits and have some very colorful names for their crosses.

I left out crosses with Whitesides and Mosaics because most likely they will be just as you said a WS or Mosaic this or that.

Here is a list of all white corn morphs though none really lend their names to peace and tranquility.
Avalanche
Quartz
Powder
Whiteout

BTW my vote for Hypomelanistic X Peanut Butter X Axanthic is Specter or Specter
