It works for me, though I do have to hover over the color for a couple
of moments - the label doesn't appear right away. If you never get it
you might go into Excel Options | Advanced | Display and see if anything
there looks like it should be checked.

In the old Microsoft Excel, when you rolled the pointer over one of the many
fill color options, a little window popped up with the name of that color.
This was very helpful to someone like me who is colorblind.
Is this feature available in the latest Excel? If it is, I can't find it.
Thanks,
