Literary analysis:
In a few literary passages the term "fuzzy wuzzy" is not merely a character’s name but instead works as a vivid color descriptor, evoking images of soft, warm, and richly textured hues. For example, in the description of a duckling—Paddy, the fuzzy wuzzy duckling—the phrase conjures a picture of a downy bird with a distinctive, perhaps tawny or brownish appearance [1]. Similarly, in product descriptions such as "FUZZY WUZZY ANGORA" for bonnets, bootees, or coats, the term is employed to denote a particular quality of angora wool that is both tactilely soft and visually appealing, suggesting a unique, warm color tone associated with luxurious textiles [2, 3, 4, 5]. These creative usages allow "fuzzy wuzzy" to function as both a descriptive color and a marker of texture, enriching the sensory experience of the reader.

This tab, the new OneLook "color thesaurus", is a work in progress. It draws from a data set of more than 2000 color names gathered from sources around the Web, and an analysis of how they are referenced in English texts. Some words, like "peach", function as both a color name and an object; when you do a search for words like these, you will see both of the above sections.
