Talk:Yellow Diamond/@comment-26021549-20150324003401/@comment-26198410-20150324020322

amethyst isn't called purple amethyst and jasper isn't called orange jasper because both of those gemstones are named after their color, if they were diferent colored they would be considered diferent kinds of quartz, and lapis only exists in blue. bad examples there.

But yeah, it is odd that it is YELLOW diamond. i personaly think there are many diamonds and yellow is one of the powerful ones, and white or clear diamond is refered just as diamond, since a diamond default color is colorless. maybe they don't call garnet "crimson garnet" because she is the only garnet left.
