The third column here is the atom name, the fourth is the residue name.

The first column here is the atom name, the second column is the atom 
type. pdb2gmx has to be able to match atom names in the .pdb file with 
those here, for the given residue. In your case, it can't. You will need 
to rename the atoms in the .pdb file, somehow. When you do, make sure 
you preserve the column formatting of the .pdb file.
