I’m not sure about how one goes adding names to CSS colors, and what the specific purpose they fulfill, but I think it would be a good recognition of @meyerweb impact on CSS, and a way to recognize that standardization is first and foremost a social process, to name #663399 color “Becca Purple”.

Maybe “becca” or “beccapurple” in the table of named colours?

+1 here as well, but I’m thinking BeccaPurple (with uppercases) like the extant DarkBlue (?)

I am all for it. I’ll most definitely never forget which color #66339 is but beccapurple sounds so much better.
