Many of the epithets which may cause confusion are either classical geographic names or terms which retain a meaning closer to that of the classical languages.
For the registration of a new cultivar name, it is also recommended that designated standards are established. These may be herbarium specimens deposited in herbaria, or illustrations that can better define colour characteristics, or documentation held at a Patents Office or a Plant Variety Protection Office.
