fl_mapcolorname() should be called *after* fl_initialize(). You may
be confusing it with fl_set_icm_color(), which should be called before
fl_initialize().
For example:
fl_initialize(&argc, argv, 0, 0, 0);
fl_mapcolorname( FL_RED, "Dodgerblue" );
changes the FL_RED to Dodger Blue.

They remain grey unless you change the table values of FL_RIGHT_BCOL,
FL_BOTTOM_BCOL, FL_TOP_BCOL, and FL_LEFT_BCOL. Of course, since they
are globally assigned, all shadows will be affected. For instance, to
create *really ugly* objects, do
fl_mapcolorname( FL_RIGHT_BCOL, "Orange" );
fl_mapcolorname( FL_BOTTOM_BCOL, "Red" );
fl_mapcolorname( FL_TOP_BCOL, "Green" );
fl_mapcolorname( FL_LEFT_BCOL, "Magenta" );
