When they refer to a color they simply relate it to something they have seen. So if there is something green, they may say that it looks like a leaf.

I learned all those names ages ago when I was interested in painting (oil). And I guess I have forgotten most of them.<BR/>But when I wanted to paint some of my walls I stumbled upon this nice yellow color, with the name that remembered me of so many beautiful moments.<BR/>So Naples yellow was the color I chose.
