Name
Some color have also a name.
The names are not:
- evenly distributed throughout the sRGB color volume,
- even internally consistent ( darkgray is lighter than gray, while lightpink is darker than pink),
and some names (such as indianred, which was originally named after a red pigment from India), have been found to be offensive.
