Meaning & History
Most likely derived from Greek χρῶμα (chroma) meaning "colour", which is a word that originally referred to the colour of one's skin (i.e. complexion). Another possibility for the meaning of this name is a derivation from the Greek noun χρόμη (chrome) meaning "neigh, neighing" (as in, the cry of a horse).
