Color name finder

Find the nearest name for a color

Digital colors can represent millions of RGB combinations, while named color collections contain a much smaller set of reference colors. This tool compares your selected color with the color-name and reference lists available on this website and returns the nearest matches.

A nearest name is an approximation rather than a claim that two colors are identical. The result is most useful for describing an unfamiliar color, discovering nearby standardized names, or finding a convenient starting point for further color matching.

The current color is stored in the URL, making the result easy to bookmark or share.
