Orange
橙 is the single-character version of orange. This can refer to the color orange, or the fruit (Just like in English). Sometimes it can refer to a whole orange tree. In botany, it can refer to bitter orange (Citrus aurantium).
In Japanese, this is sometimes pronounced as Chen and used as a female given name. When pronounced as Daidai or Kabuchi, it can be a surname in Japanese.
Vermillion
朱 means vermilion or cinnabar - a reddish or slightly orange-red color.
朱 is also a surname Zhu in Mandarin and Gee in Cantonese. However, choose carefully, as this is not the only Zhu/Gee surname.
Yellow
Yellow Color
黃 is the single character for the color yellow in Chinese.
This can be a Chinese surname Huang or a Korean surname Hwang.
In China, yellow is traditionally the color of the emperor. In fact, there was a time when only the emperor could wear yellow clothing or own yellow pet fish.
Note: Goldfish were bred originally in China for the emperor. When the perfect yellow fish was bred, all but the emperor were banned from owning any. Thus a more orange-colored goldfish dominated the market.
Notes: 黃 is not a common selection for a wall scroll. In certain contexts in China, yellow can refer to pornography or vice.
