Imitative-onomatopoeic origin, attested c. 1790. As a color modifier, fluff implies a soft-puffed-and-airy quality, the visual register of cotton-and-down-and-wool-fluff hand-carded-and-puffed cotton-and-down-and-wool-fluff hand-carded-and-puffed-fluff surfaces under hand-carded-and-puffed cotton-and-down-and-wool-fluff working-light.

A shallow body of saltwater partially or fully enclosed by a barrier — coral atoll lagoons in the Pacific, Venice's Laguna Veneta, the Florida Keys' backcountry. The color refers to the average reflectance of a calm tropical lagoon at midday: a saturated, slightly muted blue-green with the optical clarity of shallow water over white sand. Brighter than reef, cooler than aquamarine, with the postcard weight of a Pacific atoll seen from above.
