Is it too late to rename it to Octarine?

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/octarine

ChrisMarshallNY•14m ago

I suspect many animals experience color quite differently, including seeing infrared/ultraviolet, etc.

phikappa•13m ago

In my headcanon octarine is a colour between orange and deep purple. Sometimes it has a hazy blackish halo.
