What are HTML Color Names?

HTML Color Names are predefined keywords that represent specific colors in web design. Instead of using numeric values like HEX codes (#FF0000), developers can simply use the name Red. There are currently 148 standard color names supported by all major browsers, originally derived from the X11 color names.
