A useful mnemonic for remembering the first ten color codes matches the first letter of the color code, by order of increasing magnitude. There are many variations:
Bright Boys Rave Over Young Girls But Veto Getting Wed
B. B. R O Y of Great Britain has a Very Good Wife
Better Be Right Or Your Great Big Venture Goes West
Bad Beer Rots Our Young Guts, But Vodka Goes Well
Bad Boys Rape Our Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly, Get Some Now (Originally written by D. A. Gehlke[citation needed])
Bad Boys Rape Our Young Girls Behind Victory Garden Walls
Black Bastards Rape Our Young Girls But Violet Gives Willingly (Offensive, but easier to remember)
A more staid memory aide is the fact that the central part of the code follows the color spectrum (Roy G. Biv).
