There are "yellow", "blue", white", "pink", and even "orange" diamonds, but it refers to a faint "cast" the color of the diamond has due to slight impurities in it - the diamond still appears overall to be "white".

Another Answer

Other than 'white' diamonds, graded D colour to Y, there are coloured diamonds with shades of colour, from faint, to very light to light. The grade of a coloured diamond depends on the amount of mineral included in the diamond which gives it colour. For example, boron gives diamond a blue cast.

A blue diamond can be graded Faint Blue, very Light Blue or Light Blue grade. Blue is one of the rarest colours of natural diamond.

(There are also vivid grades, fancy grades and fancy vivid grades of coloured diamonds.)
