You bring up a good point. Personally, I think names should be judged on a case by case basis, and that if the name is a tribute to something that is still strongly tied to a color, it can be accepted.

Ozpin clearly is a reference to Oz, which invokes green. And yes, Velvet can be many colors, but the character is clearly a reference to Velveteen Rabbit, who's owner had scarlet fever. But again, these aren't obvious and may need a little explaining. Same must apply to any OC. The color reference can be obscure, but it must be there.
