Orange and orange, which name came first, the fruit or the color?

one of life's unsolved mysteries. i wonder if the fruit and color are different words in other languages...

Orange and orange, which name came first, the fruit or the color?
I think the color was named after the fruit - because how would they name a color without having a source/reason for naming it that? They obviously got the color orange from oranges so they just called it orange as well.
Reply:I see orange the color and then I zoom out and see that it's a orange too.
Reply:the color
Reply:The fruit!
Reply:THE FRUIT
Reply:color! I like orange.
Reply:Holy Shiz, this is THE best question ever, yes somehow stupid. So star for you! Buttttt ummm I would say the color, because the saw the fruit so they were like lets name it an orange!
