Indigo

The meaning of Indigo is ‘dark blue’ or ‘blue dye from India’. It is a gender-neutral name and is of Greek origin. The name derives from the Greek word 'indikon' which simply means ‘from India’. It is a common term for the color 'dark blue,' which was initially a dye shipped from India to Europe. The dye was used in Europe as paint for easel painting. It is also one of the seven colors of the rainbow preceding violet. It is thought to have been extracted from a plant called Indigofera tinctoria, which was once widespread in Asia.
