Are oranges called oranges because they are the colour orange?

My fascinating fact for the day.

Are oranges called oranges because they are the colour orange? It turns out the answer is no - it's the other way around. The name of the colour "orange" (in English) was derived from the name for the fruit.

Oranges were brought to Europe in the 1300s and by the 1500s had become very popular. Their English name is derived from the Old French name orenge which in turn came from the Arabic nāranj which came from the Persian work nārang. It was not until the 1500s that the word orange was being used to describe colour - with origins based in the description of the fruit. Prior to this it is believed that people referred to the colour as "yellow-red" which was ġeolurēad in Old English.
