Etymology

Bountiful
adjective

Old French bonté, goodness — adjectival suffix -ful. As a color modifier, bountiful implies a saturated-and-generous-and-abundant quality where the hue offers visual richness without measure. Sits at the bold-and-saturated end of the grid, parallel to abundant and plentiful in usage.

Cyclamen
noun

The genus Cyclamen — the small Mediterranean and alpine perennials whose distinctive backswept petals appear in autumn and persist through winter snow. The color refers to a fresh deep-pink Cyclamen persicum hybrid: a saturated, slightly cool deep pink-magenta with the satiny finish of swept-back petal form. Cooler than peony, warmer than fuchsia, with the cool-weather garden weight of a flower that blooms when most others have gone dormant.

Moderately saturated colors gain a small bump in P3 — the difference is usually visible side-by-side on wide-gamut hardware but won't change the character of the color.
