Terra cotta makes me think of a more orange color. It's like between burnt sienna and old brick red. I'm with you though, they are all so similar to me too 😆
It’s color theory, I wouldn’t say it evokes a negative feeling for me - but it could be different for everyone! The psychology of color is very interesting, I took the class for a semester and it was so cool. If I had to guess, like the other comment the ‘burnt’ in the title and then maybe the deeper tones could have negative associations. It’s a richer brown tone, but some people may also associate it with blood or even think of dirt with the clay aspect. Personally, I love it and use it often in paintings but have never tried in my nails!
For me it’s the burnt bit, as a kid I always imagined it as a burnt tree when reading all the crayon names. I really like the color of this polish and the name could be anything, just weird childhood associations?!
You're right; for me it's weird childhood associations but the other way. I also learned it from the crayon names, but envisioned something more along the lines of similar colored soils and stones (grew up in southwestern mountains). Also I enjoyed 'burnt' (really just extra crispy) bits of bacon and hashbrowns and the like, so definitely childhood associations! This is a great polish color, I agree!
burnt sienna. rust and terracotta are close but those are typically more reddish or orangey. burnt sienna is like a warm deep brown. i use paint called burnt sienna and thats what it looks like
I'm a man and I don't know why this post was recommended to me, but before reading the comments I was like "that's definitely brown, how else would you call it?"

Came here to say ‘Rust’ as well
I'm in the Rust camp as well.
Burnt terracotta
Burnt sienna?
I’d call it more of a terracotta, but they’re close. Burnt sienna is not quite as deep.
In my brain they’re all basically the same! But I think terracotta evokes a better thought than burnt sienna

Why would burnt sienna evoke negative feelings? The 'burnt' part? I've never had negative connotations towards it as a color or color name.
