Fun fact: orange (the fruit) is actually named after the tree they grow on (essentially called "fruit of the orange tree") which was then shortened to just "oranges", and THEN the color was named after the fruit (color of the fruit of the orange tree) which was then also shortened to just "orange", so technically the fruit is not named after a color, its the other way around.
