Currently there are four colors that are named after Purple, and this hinders development.

Suggestions are welcome for new names for the colors, for example, "Lavender" for the current "Purple" color.

Purple -> Lavender
Purple 2 -> Cyber Grape
Dark Purple -> Space Cadet
Dark Purple 2 -> Pearly Purple
@jinh0 what do you think ? ๐ŸŸช

Hey @YoussefBouzekri , thanks for helping out! I agree we should change Purple to Lavender.

Cyber Grape instead of Purple2 sounds amazing; I'm thinking simply 'Grape' for short (also how is a grape cyber?).

I think Pearly Purple is too much of a tongue twister, though. Space Cadet means an astronaut, so I can't see a clear correlation with the color. What do you think about 'Void Purple' instead of Dark Purple? Dark Purple looks more black than purple.

I'll be sure to replace the color names for the first two in the code.

If you want to contribute more to spaceduck, check out the dev branch, we're currently refactoring basically everything.

Thanks for the quick response @jinh0
I really like how Void Purple Sounds, but what about the rest of the colors (blue, green etc..), will you be renaming those out ?

I don't think they need renaming... yet ( @pineapplegiant is planning on making 16 colors in total). Each color has a unique name.

I made this issue because it was actually getting annoying to distinguish between four colors all named Purple in conversation. Thanks for solving the issue!

Now that I think about it... DarkPurple2 should be called Blueberry. Let me know what you think!

I love it !
