The Problem With Naming Colors in Design Systems
How you name colors in a design system determines how your team reasons about color. Semantic names like 'success-green' encode intent and constrain reuse. Scale names like 'green-600' encode position without intent. Proprietary names like 'brand-cobalt' encode identity. Each approach creates different problems over time.
