I'm surprized even this worked since you don define Paragraph anywhere.

The layout file just tells LyX what it should look like on screen and what
latex commands it should output when that Style is used. All your Styles
produce the exact same LaTeX so they all look the same.

The other half of the problem: defining the appropriate LaTeX. Either in
a new LaTeX .cls or .sty file or explicitly using LaTeXName and other
entries in the layout file. Take another look at Customization.lyx (get
the latest from 1.1.4 or from cvs if you haven already got it)
