About Color Name Generator
Color Name Generator is a free online tool for web designers and developers who need a name for a color. With a database of over 31,000 color names, it finds the closest name for any color you enter.
The Color Name Generator uses a carefully curated list of color names that are supported by all modern web browsers.
Enter a value in HEX, RGB, HSL, or a supported HTML color name, such as "Brown". The site matches your color to the nearest name from the list.
You can also copy Sass, Less, and CSS variables for your project, explore lighter and darker shades, and jump to similar colors.
Testing text readability? Use the color contrast checker to check any pair of colors against the WCAG rules. Starting a design from scratch? The palette generator gives you five named colors that go together.
