    Gray tones will play very differently if there is not enough light in the room.My suggestion is to go to the paint store and choose what you feel is the proper warm gray. Take the paint chips home and once you think you have found the correct color I would buy a sample and again test it on the wall. I have made that mistake before. So now I always try the colors out first.

    Agreeable Gray (warmer) and French Gray (a little less warm) by Sherwin Williams (avail at SW stores and Lowe's). If you look at the last photo with the cabinet on this post of mine you will see Agreeable Gray http://www.hometalk.com/diy/paint/furniture/diy-rustic-cabinet-rehab-14204298 it's a very easy color to live with, goes with pretty much all other colors.

    I used the color pearl In two different homes. Such a very, very light grey. Get a sample. Love it. I have white shelves and the contrast is simply outstanding.

    Sherwin Williams Worldly Gray. I've painted each room in two houses with this. So many people loved it and used it in their homes too.

    Behr "Sparrow". It's warm and clean, i've used it in several rooms. I also like "Manhattan Mist", also from Behr.

    Benjamin Moore has a wonderful color: Baby's Breath. It too is a soft, warm, but light color. Great for walls.
