I wish I had happy news for you.
Porcelain and ceramic tiles come from all areas of the world, and while yours has a name and country on it.that doesn't mean they shipped that same name to every store that purchased it.
Worst case scenario: you can't match up the tile.
Can you go with something completely different in the kitchen area - but in the same color family, so that it looks like you changed your mind on purpose - rather than trying to match it and miss. Also - if the tiles leading into the kitchen are laid on a traditional grid pattern...consider running a border, and the kitchen tiles on a diagonal. That will give you a definitive break that you made this change intentionally.
If matching exactly is going to be an issue, I wish I had better news...but you will mostly likely have to rip everything out and start over.
