To add to my post above, my Greek dictionary defines xanthos as 'yellow of various shades, golden or pale yellow; also red-yellow, chestnut, auburn'. Expressed in this way, it seems to imply that the redder shades are a secondary meaning.
Michael King Macdona

And do as adversaries do in law, -
Strive mightily, but eat and drink as friends.
(The Taming of the Shrew: Act 1, Scene 2)
