Tidy Thoth Robin

Old English tidig, timely — drifted in modern English to mean neat, orderly. Used as a color modifier for hues that read as composed and unfussy. Tidy beige, tidy gray: moderate saturation combined with optical neatness. Sits at the crisp-bucket alongside plain and modest.

Egyptian Djehuty, ibis-headed-god-of-writing. As a color modifier, thoth implies an ibis-headed-and-scribe-and-moon-god quality, the visual register of Egyptian-Thoth-and-Hermopolis-temple hand-ibis-headed-and-scribe-and-moon-god Egyptian-Thoth-and-Hermopolis-temple-and-Hermes-Trismegistus thoth-and-ibis-headed-and-scribe-and-moon-god surfaces under Egyptian-Thoth-and-Hermopolis-temple-and-Hermes-Trismegistus papyrus-and-reed-pen-and-Hermopolis ibis-scribe-light. Sits at the modifier-and-myth end of the grid, parallel to isis and horus in usage.

The American robin (Turdus migratorius) — though the color refers not to the bird's red breast but to the egg, robin's-egg blue, a pale slightly green-shifted blue produced by biliverdin pigment in the eggshell. The color is the inside surface of a fresh robin's nest at peak laying: a soft, slightly green-shifted pale blue with the matte finish of avian eggshell. Lighter than aqua, cooler than turquoise.
