Frequently asked questions
- How are the closest names found?
- Colours are compared the way people see them, not just by their numbers, so the match looks right as well as being close.
- Can I use these names in CSS?
- Yes. Every name in the list, like tomato or rebeccapurple, works as a CSS colour in any stylesheet.
- Why are gray and grey both there?
- CSS accepts both spellings for every grey. They're the same colour, so matches show just one.

- No. Matching happens on your device.
- Is Color Name Finder free?
