It is so pink! Of course, I remember it from my childhood. It is just a great deep, rich color. And as a kid the name sounded exotic to me. I think it is the first color name I became aware of outside the usual eight- or ten-color school crayon set.

Magenta was my favorite Crayola color when I was a child. I don't like it as well now as I did then, but it's a sentimental favorite! I learned the word "magenta" (and lots of other color words) from my childhood Crayola crayons, so I think it was educational for me, too!
