I like a lot of thenames, but being sari silk, I feel they should have Indian names! Like (copper color) Ganges,
(green color) Rice Fields, (deep blue) Indian Ocean, (purple color) Sunset on the Taj Mahal, (smokey color) Mysterious Temple, (blue-green color) Day Festival.
These are my thoughts. Luck to all.
This is such fun! I had to prune and prune to get down to four for each color!
