You might be wondering why they're named after colors. The sound frequency profiles are named to be analogous to lightwave frequency profiles. When it comes to light, red light has more lower frequencies, while blue light has more higher frequencies. White light has a fairly even mix of all light frequencies.

Pretty cool. The color makes sense because it corresponds to how light and color perception work. Any brown object appears brown because, while it absorbs all frequencies of visible light, it absorbs the highest frequencies (blue) the strongest and the lower frequencies (red) the least. Pink does something similar (depending on which shade), except it doesn't absorb the higher frequencies quite so strongly (it reflects more light). This corresponds well with the definitions in sound, in terms of what they emit.
