It's bizarre though, cos in my mind the "wrong" names always come to me first. I see the beige one and think "4LOM" and see the droid and think "Zuckuss" and then I have to make the reversal based on deduction and subsequent corrections in source material.

I'm pretty sure at the time that I considered the names "wrong" but had no other source than Kenner, and the names just stuck in my young mind. Lucas was always screwing with names (THX1138 is not a droid) so I figured it was conceivable that 4LOM was the alien and Zuckuss was the droid. Only the later EU stuff paired these together (and West End RPG IIRC) until then I thought all the bounty hunters worked alone.
