There’s no “right” answers to the colors we perceive from numbers or letters, but I did read that statistically 1 is reported to be white very often. My letter i is also white, as is O, but zero is black to me. My sister and cousin agree they feel 1 is white.
I can generally tell who would be receptive, curious, or amused if I tell them about my color associations. Some people (the types who never understand anything different from themselves anyway) might badger or grill me over it, but I just learned to feel out who might be accepting. I just sometimes say, without thinking, that a phone number or something is interesting colors without thinking first, and that’s where I might get the strange looks. Anyway, that’s cool. As a side note, A is often said to be red and B blue.
