Remarks
Returns the name of this color space. The name is never null and contains always at least 1 character.
Color space names are recommended to be unique but are not guaranteed to be. There is no defined format but the name usually falls in one of the following categories:
<ul> <li>Generic names used to identify color spaces in non-RGB color models. For instance: Named#CIE_LAB Generic L*a*b*.</li> <li>Names tied to a particular specification. For instance: Named#SRGB sRGB IEC61966-2.1 or Named#ACES SMPTE ST 2065-1:2012 ACES.</li> <li>Ad-hoc names, often generated procedurally or by the user during a calibration workflow. These names often contain the make and model of the display.</li> </ul>
Because the format of color space names is not defined, it is not recommended to programmatically identify a color space by its name alone. Names can be used as a first approximation.
It is however perfectly acceptable to display color space names to users in a UI, or in debuggers and logs. When displaying a color space name to the user, it is recommended to add extra information to avoid ambiguities: color model, a representation of the color space's gamut, white point, etc.
