bold works with all extended names ("bold orange", "bold purple", …). light / dark modifiers are ignored for extended names — the RGB value is fixed. Use a #hex code if you need precise control.

Note

dark / light modifiers do not apply to hex colors or extended named colors — the RGB value itself sets the brightness.
