How can I find the human readable name for a CPU?

I need to know the name of the CPU used in a GKE cluster I have launched. The gcloud command has a --min-cpu-platform option, but my understanding is that is the minimum and I may get a later CPU type. When I log into the node and run lscpu and/or lshw the CPU Family, Model, and Stepping are given, but I have been unable to find a way to convert these values into something like "Ice Lake", or "Cascade Lake", etc. which is what I need. This is not a duplicate of https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/230634/how-to-find-out-intel-architecture-family-from-command-line as either the commands are not available on GKE nodes, or do not produce the information I am looking for. I need a way to lookup the name given the CPU family, model, and stepping values provided by lscpu. Neither ark.intel.com nor Wikipedia seem to have this information.
