No, but others have made renders.

And IIRC, others have compiled some very LARGE files of "named" colors.
It would probably be easy enough to parse that as an include file and render a
few million dots - given Paul Bourke's recent data set.

However, I think that given how subjective color perception is - so dependent on
lighting, context, etc. - that it's best to just get a close-enough color to
start with and then tweak it after the rest of the scene is finalized.
Otherwise you're chasing color ghosts.
