Technically Shinys aren't "shiny" and Albinos aren't "pure white". Also Melans aren't "pure black". So I really don't see a the need to change the names Albino and Melanistic.
Well technically, Shinies do sparkle in some offical games, mainly while being caught. Yet due to the sprites being 2D here on PFQ, we're stuck with them only "sparkling" when hatching.

Art class is a little long ago and rusty but maybe terms that imply the colors without implying black and white? To replace Albino: Tint, when you add white to a color, making it lighter/desaturated. To replace Melanistic: Tone, when you add grey to a color. Granted, sometimes tones can come out lighter with a very light grey, but it can be dark grey too.
*Shade not Tone. Tone refers to the multiple tones (shades and tints) of a color, while Shade means to darken a color.
