HexeesDigital color, made useful.

CSS color identity desk

Find the nearest official CSS color name.

Enter any opaque CSS color. Hexees compares it with 139 unique colors from the CSS Color 4 named-color table and shows the five nearest matches instead of inventing a name.

HEX, RGB, HSL, HWB, OKLCH, and CSS keywords are accepted. The result is based on opaque sRGB.

Your input and nearest-name results stay in this browser and are not added to the URL.

Perceptual ranking

Five names, measured rather than guessed.

A smaller OKLab ΔE means the rendered sRGB values are more perceptually similar. The first result is the nearest value in the fixed CSS standard table.

A standard vocabulary with a visible distance.

Hexees converts the input and every unique CSS named value to OKLab, calculates Euclidean ΔE, then applies a stable lexical tie-break. Alias spellings such as cyan and aqua are shown together.
