'Magecast Magenta' - not a magenta, but a purple.
'Wicked Pink' - not pink, but actually magenta.
This is one (but far from the only) reason that any 'miniatures' paints are a huge waste of time IMO. The names for the colours are completely meaningless! At least when I hear 'dio purple' or 'phthalo green', I _know_ what that means, as does basically every other painter. Plus, you can't get vendor-locked!
