"sweet williams" are pinks too, I believe.
Let's see.... Wikipedia says:
Dianthus is a genus of about 300 species of flowering plants in the family
Caryophyllaceae, native mainly to Europe and Asia, with a few species extending
south to north Africa, and one species (D. repens) in arctic North America.
Common names include carnation (D. caryophyllus), pink (D. plumarius and
related species) and sweet William (D. barbatus). The name Dianthus is from the
Greek words dios("god") and anthos ("flower"), and was cited by the Greek
botanist Theophrastus.
also
The color pink may be named after the flower, coming from the frilled edge of
the flowers: the verb "pink" dates from the 14th century and means "to decorate
with a perforated or punched pattern" (maybe from German "pinken" = to peck).
Source: Collins Dictionary. This verb sense is also used in the name of pinking
shears.
