Agua Fría vs Aquaverde
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Both sit in the blue family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Agua Fría (LRV 52) reflects noticeably more light than Aquaverde (LRV 49), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean cool, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. The ΔE 6.1 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice.
