Elephant Ear vs Liberty Blue
Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Hue-wise, Elephant Ear belongs to the greige-grey family and Liberty Blue to the blue family. Liberty Blue (LRV NaN) reflects noticeably more light than Elephant Ear (LRV 28), a difference of NaN points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Elephant Ear runs warm while Liberty Blue is decidedly cool, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of NaN, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
