Color Sibset
If you had children named after colors, what would you name them? The reference can be in the meaning, can be the word for a color in another language, can be the actual name of the color, etc. I'm looking for ideas that aren't totally obscure from the actual color (e.g. "Elizabeth is the White queen!" Not what I'm looking for). It doesn't matter which gender per color, give a name for each or do both genders for each!

Viola, Ciara, Aurelia and Bruno would be my top picks. These are the ones I thought of:
Viola
Ciara
Ciaran
Bruno
Saffron
Ruby
Aurelia
Fern
Xanthe
Flavia
Rory
Garnet
Sapphire
Iris (it means rainbow, so...)
I've just come to the realisation that I might be a bit synaesthetic when it comes to names. I kept getting confused when thinking of names for this because I unconsciously associate a whole lot of them - ones that don't mean anything to do with colours - with a particular colour!

I will try to come back and finish, but off the top of my head I would love a blue sibset.
Neela and Azure for a girl and boy.
