  Lavender magenta
  Some perceive lavender as being a light violet color somewhere between the web colors heliotrope and the web color wisteria. This color is reproduced at right: it is equivalent to the web color mistakenly called "Violet" which is actually a light violet, i.e., a lavender of medium saturation (see the colors displayed in the article on violet for a comparison of the so-called web color "violet" with the actual color violet, which is color #8B00FF: actual color violet).  Although the web color "violet" may be called light violet it is technically actually a light magenta, since the red and blue values of the color are equal (which signifies for computer display that this color is a shade of magenta), and therefore another name for this color is lavender magenta, analogous to the colors lavender gray, lavender indigo, lavender blue, lavender rose, and lavender pink.
