Enter any HEX, RGB, or HSL value and instantly identify your color — complete with harmonies, tints, shades, and CMYK values. The one tool for designers, architects, and creatives who need to specify with confidence.
Chromonyms is a free color name finder for designers, architects, and creatives. Enter any HEX code or RGB value and instantly discover what the color is called — chosen from a library of over 600 named colors spanning CSS4 standards, architectural terminology, and designer-favorite names like Terra Cotta, Sage Green, Prussian Blue, and Greige.
Simply type your 6-digit HEX value into the input field above (e.g. #C9A0DC for Wisteria). Chromonyms uses a perceptual color distance algorithm to match your color to the closest human-readable name — so results feel natural, not just mathematically nearest.
The hex color #E2725B is Terra Cotta — a warm red-orange inspired by the fired clay used in Mediterranean architecture, pottery, and roof tiles.
Over 600 named colors, including all CSS4 named colors, common paint and pigment names, architectural color terms, and designer-culture names like Millennial Pink, Greige, and Hague Blue.
Yes — enter R, G, and B values individually in the RGB fields. Chromonyms converts them to HEX and finds the closest named color in real time.
Completely free, with no sign-up or account required.
Chromonyms is a free color identification tool built for designers, architects, and creatives who work with color every day. Whether you have a HEX code, an RGB value, or just the name of a color in your head, Chromonyms helps you find exactly what you need — instantly and without sign-up.
Our database contains over 600 named colors drawn from CSS4 web standards, Pantone references, and the most widely used paint brands including Benjamin Moore, Sherwin Williams, Farrow & Ball, and Behr. For the most contested color names — those that vary dramatically between brands — we list every major brand variant side by side, so you can specify with confidence.
Chromonyms was built with one goal in mind: to be the most accurate and beautiful color naming tool on the web. We believe that every color has a name, and every designer deserves to find it.
