No doubt OnB is sharp and imaginative and that color names can be kind of poetic. We have a name for a certain color - "�skmolnsrosa" - which means "thundercloud pink". This word is not in the dictionary, ofcourse; far too imaginative and descriptive, but people use it and almost everybody of my people knows what it is.

Found something: HTML color codes listed in alphabetical order. Some have kind of... what shall I say... remarkable names; "Cornsilk", "Indianred", "Moccasin" and "Navajowhite". Hm...?
