In 1993 we conducted a poll to find out the most popular colors in America. Blue was voted the most popular Crayola Crayon color. Rounding the top ten were red, violet, green, carnation pink, black, turquoise blue, blue green, periwinkle and magenta.
In 2000, we did another Crayola Color Census, and blue again reigns as number one! Six other shades of blue finished in the Top 10 including cerulean, midnight blue, aquamarine, periwinkle, denim and blizzard blue. The other colors rounding out the list included purple heart, caribbean green and cerise.
In 2025, Crayola announced the results of its first Global Color Vote for National Color Day on October 22, revealing that we share a common connection to certain hues. Earlier in 2025, consumers from 183 countries (94% of the countries worldwide) cast their votes, and the top three favorite Crayola colors are Cerulean (blue), Robin’s Egg Blue and Wisteria.
