wxWidgets maintains a database of standard RGB colours for a predefined set of named colours.
The application may add to this set if desired by using AddColour and may use it to look up colours by names using Find or find the names for the standard colour using FindName.

AQUAMARINE | FIREBRICK | MEDIUM FOREST GREEN | RED |
