Hot pink has been know by the following terms:
rosa mexicano (in Mexico)
rosa neón (a good all around term for "hot pink")
fucsia (fuchsia)
rosa shockeante (used by some people, not common)
rosa caliente (used by some people, not common)

Here fuchsia is written fucsia.
this comes from from wikipedia
Hot Pink
El color Hot Pink o fucsia (o rosa neón) es más denso e intenso, o como lo definió Elsa Schiaparelli, la primera en usar el fucsia, llamándolo rosa shockeante. Este color es en apariencia más cercano al magenta que al rosa tradicional. El término Hot Pink es usualmente utilizado como un modismo para describir a los genitales femeninos, seguramente debido a la acepción literal del término, rosa caliente.
Hot pink, (also neon pink) is bold and intense, or as Elsa Schiaparelli, the first to use hot pink, called it "shocking pink". Its appearance is more akin to magenta than it is to traditional pink.
The term Hot Pink is often used as slang to describe female genitalia.

Sorry for insisting, but I'd like to know if you could also say "rosa fuerte" or not. If anyone knows, thanks a lot. :)

"rosa fuerte" exist, but it's not the same as "fucsia"

you can see in pag 3 "rosa fuerte" and "fucsia"
Altough for me (a man) the colors are the same.
I hope it helps

Yes, I think "rosa fuerte" would be like "dark pink" whereas "hot pink" would be "fucsia".
