Is there a color named "deep"?

Question

Hi. I was just experimenting with one of my codes and found out that "deep" is a valid color name in HTML. I also tried with other names such as "deep blue", "deep green", "deep red" but it generates unexpected output. Can you please tell me the reason behind it?

In the beginning I was thinking that "chucknorris" is translated into red because he makes fire everywhere he goes. So browsers render it in red in honour to his legend. And the browser vendors certainly didn't wanna mess with him 😂
