thumb|Various shades of pink thumb|Pinks: carnation cultivars thumb|Two doors in different shades of pink (left: peach, right: [[bubblegum)]] Origin; perhaps from pinken or the English verb pink from the same source. Perhaps from the notion of the petals being pinked. An earlier word for similar flesh-like colors, mostly displaced by pink, was incarnation (1300s; see Etymonline) and carnation.
