Instantly find the name for any color. Convert HEX and RGB codes to their official or closest color name, explore the full HTML & CSS color name list, and get insights for your projects. Perfect for web development, design, data science, and creative arts.
Ever found yourself with a HEX code like #1a2b3c and wondered, "What color is this?" Or maybe you're trying to communicate a specific shade to a colleague, and "that light-ish blue-green" just isn't cutting it. Our Color Name Finder is designed to solve exactly this problem by bridging the gap between machine-readable color codes and human-friendly color names.
This tool provides a comprehensive database of all official HTML and CSS color names, allowing you to perform a color name search or list all color names. Whether you need to find a color name from a HEX or RGB value or convert a known color name back to its code, this utility is your one-stop solution. It's an indispensable resource for anyone who works with color, from web development to digital art.
Quickly find names for colors in a design mockup from tools like Figma. Standardize CSS by using named colors instead of ambiguous hex codes. Ensure consistency across your web projects by referencing a definitive color name list.
When creating plots and charts with libraries like Matplotlib in Python or generating reports in LaTeX, using named colors makes your code more readable and your visualizations easier to understand and reproduce.
Find the perfect name for a specific shade in your digital painting. For game developers on platforms like Roblox, a color name predictor helps in scripting and asset creation. It's also great for finding color inspiration for fashion and interior design (e.g., for `abbinamento colori vestiti` or clothes color matching).
From marketing professionals creating brand guidelines to teachers explaining color theory, having a universal name for a color is essential for clear communication. This tool is for anyone who needs to name a color.
The color names used in web development (like "Tomato" or "SteelBlue") are part of a standardized list, primarily from the X11 color system, which is now a web standard in HTML and CSS. These names map directly to specific HEX and RGB values.
You might also have heard of other systems like Pantone. It's important to understand that Pantone colors are designed for print (using the CMYK model) and are part of a proprietary matching system. While you can find the closest digital (RGB/HEX) equivalent to a Pantone color, there isn't a direct one-to-one conversion for names in the way web colors have. This tool focuses on the official names for digital, screen-based colors.
Simply enter your HEX code (e.g., #32CD32) into the tool, and it will instantly give you the name (in this case, "LimeGreen").
Yes, our tool provides a complete, searchable color name table containing all 140+ standard CSS color names.
The rock is Slate, which lends its name to colors like "SlateGray" and "DarkSlateGray". You can find them all in our color list!
While "skin color" varies greatly, you can find names for many common skin tones in our database, such as "Bisque", "Tan", "SaddleBrown", and "PeachPuff". Just input the HEX/RGB code of the skin tone you are looking for.
Most Python visualization libraries, including Matplotlib, accept standard CSS color names as string inputs (e.g., `plt.plot(x, y, color='steelblue')`). Our programming examples below show this in action.
// Convert color name to hex
const colorNameToHex = {
'red': '#FF0000',
'green': '#00FF00',
'blue': '#0000FF'
};
// Convert hex to RGB
function hexToRgb(hex) {
const result = /^#?([a-f\d]{2})([a-f\d]{2})([a-f\d]{2})$/i.exec(hex);
return result ? {
r: parseInt(result[1], 16),
g: parseInt(result[2], 16),
b: parseInt(result[3], 16)
} : null;
}# Convert RGB to hex
def rgb_to_hex(r, g, b):
return '#{:02x}{:02x}{:02x}'.format(r, g, b)
# Convert hex to RGB
def hex_to_rgb(hex_color):
hex_color = hex_color.lstrip('#')
return tuple(int(hex_color[i:i+2], 16) for i in (0, 2, 4))
