140 HTML Color Names

All modern browsers support the following 140 color names. Such as background color, font color or border color of HTML element can be defined by RGB, HEX, HSL, RGBA, or HSLA values.

These values are not designed from human language but abstract mathematical model(RGB), hexadecimal code of RGB color(HEX), etc.

The interesting thing is, from HTML 3.0, 16 colors defined with English Language, like Red and Blue, use as HTML color values. Later, extended colors names were used from HTML 4.01. Many of these colors are from the list of X11 color names distributed with the X Window System.
