Neutral paint color

I'm desparate for help in picking a dining room paint color.
I've spent over $60.00 on paint samples. Here's the dilemma. My dining room has a salmon/coral marble fireplace. I'd like to find a warm neutral with no obvious peach undertones. I don't want to use gray because it won't flow well into the living room (Georgian Green by BM) and Phil. Cream in foyer. I've tried Putnam Ivory, Monroe Bisque, Powell Buff etc. They all seem too dark. The room gets very little light. Then I tried Barely beige, everlasting, lady finger, barbados sand, adobe beige, etc. I'm leaning towards barbados sand since it's a little deeper than barely beige. I thought I'd love Putnam ivory, but when I painted a patch it looked too dark. Maybe I should just go for it and pick a color. I could have bought a gal. of paint already. None of the Affinity colors work. Sorry this is so long, but I'm thinking of just turning off the lights and forget about it-at least for a little while. Thanks in advance.
