The article apparently deals with creating multiband rasters (which I am already able to do), but not storing/displaying a different band name in QGIS.

I wasn't able to find anything on which format format ArcGIS uses to store band names (and I can't check since I do not own a license). For now I'm storing the band name in a "Band" PAM metadata item for each individual band in the GeoTiff raster, e.g. gdalinfo prints the following :

    Driver: GTiff/GeoTIFF
    Files: test.tif
    Size is 4850, 4340
    ...
    Band 1 Block=4850x1 Type=Float32, ColorInterp=Gray
      NoData Value=nan
      Metadata:
        Band=GREEN

In QGIS this is displayed properly under the "Metadata" tab, but I wasn't able to display band names elsewhere. If anybody has an idea on whether this is doable, I'd appreciate any help.

Cheers,
François-Xavier
