you should used ColorHex like : #602A4D And not used .Tostring() to this code :

BackColor='<%# System.Drawing.Color.FromName(Eval("BgColor"))%>'>

//Label, setting forecolor by HexaColor

lblResult.ForeColor = System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml("#E93301");

or

//Label, setting forecolor by color Name

lblResult.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;

You should be using FromHtml:

<%# System.Drawing.ColorTranslator.FromHtml(Eval("BgColor")%>

You may try,

<asp:Label 
     ID="Label2" 
     runat="server" 
     Text="Label" 
     BackColor='<%# System.Drawing.Color.FromName(Eval("BgColor").ToString())%>'>
</asp:Label>
