Named colors in Makie.jl (e.g., :blue) are parsed using Colors.jl and thus have a large array of possibilities under CSS specifications. You can find a plotted table of all possible names in this page.
These colorschemes are not defined or provide different colors in ColorSchemes.jl
They are kept for compatibility with the old behaviour of Makie, before v0.10.
