Chat Color Tags
This plugin allows to easily use colors in the chat without having to remember all the color codes. The user simply types a tag wherever they want to insert a color in the chat. Any suggestions or general ideas, leave a comment.
Latest version should work in versions 1.7 - 1.10 (let me know if this range should be corrected)

If you have Essentials installed, you can use /nick to change the color of your name. Just type /nick <name here> and use any colors you want.
If you want a blue name type /nick &bSteve
This plugin doesn't change the color of your name.
Hey one more question, how do u get your name color to be a color? A little more detail, because I usually do /color name color
