Etymology

The aura/simile colour of popo (shell): popo + -nýj. It is the cold other-class equivalent of pină — the same hue at the opposite emotional temperature, but built from a genuinely cold object so that the suffix obeys Source Agreement (warmth follows the source noun, never a flipped suffix).
