I don't often admit it, but I'm not "color-blind." I'm not trying to say that I'm racist because I'm not at all. But I do see everything and everyone's name as a particular color. Here are some examples, and the alphabet in its "true" colors:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
"I" and "O" are clear, not white, and often influenced by the colors of the letters directly proceeding and following them. "Z" is black, and thus probably won't show up on the black background. The "rules" which govern how a particular letter and word will look have only recently come to light for me. I love to read and it is through reading and spelling out nearly every word I see and hear on a daily basis that I have begun to understand why some words might look the way the do. Some words completely defy what I would expect them to look like. Certain words lack color completely, and I'm not sure why. Extremely long words have no color. Some letters are "stronger" than others and play a large part in determining what colors the other letters appear to have. Because reading is seeing familiar words, those words often appear as one color rather than individual letters. Numbers also have colors too (but not all numbers):
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 (10 is a dark gray because 1 seems to be black when next to 0, which in this case is white. In all other cases, ex: 12, 13, and 14. the reason why numbers are the colors they are seems to make little sense)
Below are some examples of words and the overall color they create. I've tried to make the individual colors above as accurate as possible (according to what I see) but regardless, they are subject to change when placed next to each other by lightening or darkening the letters near them. The first letter often defines what the overall color of the word will be. Some of the examples below will highlight this.
BETH (dark blue)
CAITLYN (yellow and pink)
LIZ (the "Z" is black) (purple)
RONNIE (purple)
ELIZABETH (playful green)
ALEX (medium red)
PUPPY (pink)
ICE (tealish blue)
CAMEL (yellow-orange)
COASTIE (light yellow)
MOM (soft yellow)
DAD (whatever color this is)
JUPITER (periwinkle)
NEPTUNE (greenish-blue)
Sorry if this makes me look crazy :P
