Valspar's Breath of Blue is a similar color.

This really comes down to personal preference. I've seen some tilers do not such a nice job of the joint at the countertop which is disappointing. If you have an excellent installer, you should discuss with them how they will do the grout line at the countertop and ask if they've done it before and how it turned out. A 4" backsplash or even 3" above counter with tile above is also a lovely way to go, and is personally how I do most kitchens. In my own kitchen, I did tile down to the counter and it looks good, but the area at the back of the counter doesn't get that much use, since I have a corner sink and keep most of my countertop appliances back there (think toaster, coffee machine, electric tea kettle, bread box, etc.) If you want a very clean look and empty countertop, you may prefer the more seamless appearance of the 4" granite backsplash.

Several vendors make bar sinks like this. They are great for parties and such, here are two of my favorites:

That looks like a white granite that we call White Palmas in this region, and polished. Often times white granites don't look as shiny as other polished granites.

I think it's called a well or a trough.
