Simply put, the Ravens are named both for Edgar Allan Poe's poem "The Raven" and the bird itself. Natural Ravens in the wild can show a combination of Black and Purple sheen to their feathers when viewed in sunlight; it is these colors where the primary colors of the Baltimore Ravens uniforms and overall color schemes come from.

The colour makes it easier for them to live in there environment. It's not nearly quite as technical as you may think.
