Literary analysis:
In literature, the name “paprika” has been used more as a vivid emblem than just a culinary term. Authors evoke its warm, reddish hue to suggest warmth, vibrancy, or a touch of spice in character or object. For instance, in one work a young girl is affectionately nicknamed “Miss Paprika” [1], an appellation that hints at a fiery or spirited personality through the association with the spice’s striking color. In another example, a “paprika‐brand” novel [2] conjures up an image of something uniquely colored by passion and flavor, suggesting that the very hue of paprika can be as evocative and character-defining as any literary metaphor.
  1. This book is dedicated to my daughter, nicknamed Miss "Paprika" by our pupils.
    — from California Mexican-Spanish Cook Book: Selected Mexican and Spanish Recipes by Bertha Haffner-Ginger
  2. So Bubseley tottered down the walk while Babseley turned out the lights and retired to her room with a bag of candy and a paprika-brand of novel.
    — from The Gorgeous Girl by Nalbro Bartley

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.
