What does the word Murasaki mean in Japanese?

"Murasaki" (紫) in Japanese means purple.

It's worth noting that the word "Murasaki" is also the last part of the name of the famous Japanese author Murasaki Shikibu, the author of the *Tale of Genji*. The name "Murasaki Shikibu" actually means "Purple Office," referencing a high-ranking noble woman in the Heian period.
