Sienna

2 syllablesTrend: up

From the Italian city Siena; the red-brown earth pigment

Sienna is the color of Tuscan rooftops at sunset, and it became a name the way all the best color names do, by sounding impossibly right. Drawn from the Italian city of Siena, which lent its warm red-brown earth to painters for centuries, it entered the American charts in the early 2000s and has climbed confidently to 139. Three syllables, see-EN-ah, lilting and Mediterranean, the double N giving it a soft heartbeat. Nickname Sia keeps it modern. Glamorous without being cold, warm without being saccharine. A name that feels like linen curtains in a sunlit room and an espresso gone cold on the table.
