Seems to be the standard in my association.

I do think it can be a good reminder too when you have weird colors. For example, first time I saw the "pink" awareness uniforms, I would have probably called "pink" had the R not designated them as "white" at the jump. I've also seen very dark purple uniforms be called both "black" or "blue". I see absolutely no downside to it either.
