I would assume that the rose was named for Graham Stuart Thomas, 1909 - 2003, English horticulturalist and author.
But I appreciate the biographical work Viviane Schussele has done for other rose names.

Graham Thomas described; I think more than once, how he came to select the rose to bear his name. For example, in the introduction to David Austin's book, The Heritage of the Rose, 1988, p. 12

"...a few of them may be named and may prove a success, such as 'Mary Rose' and my own namesake. It is interesting to recall that the latter was the only rich soft yellow amongst hundreds of seedlings. But on looking back one can see that it has ever been a rare colour..."

We are trying to find out more about Avramis and the chios Rose, before adding it. chios Rose seems to be a found rose and could be an existing OGR. Regarding Avramis we are looking for the family behind the nursery- an Eva Avrami (without s) is listed as co-owner. Maybe our Greek members can tell us more?
