Well, Wiki says:

 

 

 

What color is magenta?

 

 

 

Answer

 

magenta is a shade of hot pink

 

 

 

Magenta was one of the first aniline dyes, discovered shortly after the Battle of Magenta (1859), which occurred near the town of Magenta in northern Italy. The color was originally called fuchsine or roseine, but for marketing purposes in 1860 the color name was changed to magenta after the battle. Hence, the color is named indirectly after the town.
