Kiri said it first. Yes, foxes come in many colors, but the orange/red/brown colorations are so common as to be the characteristic default. Lizards, on the other hand, come in FAR more varieties of species and colors, to the point where pinpointing any one as the color reference is just plain stretching it.

Look, if enough other people think it's okay, then my opinion gets vetoed anyways. I'm just saying that lizard in particular doesn't work as a color name, simply because of how many species of lizard there are in different colors.
