Creating color charts using the paints you have in your palette is such an important tool to learn your colors.
Creating a chart with a simple square of color with the name written below is a great way to keep track of all your colors. Make a little code or key of the various brands along with names of the colors.
Your own color chart is a great reference tool. Sure you can find them in many books, but having a chart of what is actually in your own palette is extremely important.
