```
var localizedCatalogNameComponent: String { get }
```

## Discussion

Use the value in this property when displaying the catalog name in your user interface. Access this property only for colors in the [`named`](/documentation/AppKit/NSColorSpaceName/named) color space. Accessing it for other color types raises an exception.
