Cadet Blue, Charcoal and Olive Drab 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.
Cadet Blue #5f9ea0
complementaryCadet Blue sits directly opposite #ce55a1 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
Charcoal #36454f
neutralshippedCharcoal is the body-text near-black for #ce55a1: its slight blue cast keeps type crisp beside a warm colour where pure #000 looks heavy.
Olive Drab #6b8e23
split-complementOlive Drab is a split-complement of #ce55a1: nearly opposite, so it still pops against it, without the vibrating edge of a true complement.

Yellow #ffff00
shippedTwo real palettes: JetBrains's brand system and Arcade put Yellow beside #ce55a1, as the accent.

Indian Red #cd5c5c
