#3786b3rgb(55, 134, 179)hsl(202, 53%, 46%)oklch(0.591 0.103 237.2)Charcoal, Copper and Crimson lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.
Charcoal is the text near-black for #3786b3: softer than #000 and cool enough to feel like part of the same palette.
Copper sits directly opposite #3786b3 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Crimson is a split-complement of #3786b3: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.
Royal Blue is #3786b3's neighbour on the wheel, so the two read as one family — use it for hover states, gradients and secondary surfaces.
