Reminds me, I was going to nitpick that one of Lennart's favoured colors 
(#9C6969) was close to RosyBrown4 (#8B6969)

color-name-rgb-alist in tty-colors.el apparently contains a 
emacs-internal list of the well-known named colors (apparently leaving
out a few that have platform specific interpretations according to the
source comments), so:

(defun colored-colorlist ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((buf (get-buffer-create "*color-list*")))
    (with-current-buffer buf
      (delete-region (point-min) (point-max))
      (mapcar (lambda (l)
                (insert (format "%-20s." (car l)))
                (insert (propertize
                         (format "%-20s.\n" (car l))
                         'face (cons 'foreground-color  (car l)))))
              color-name-rgb-alist))
    (display-buffer buf)))
