There definitely is something to be said too about displays, since this is a digital platform and everyone's screens are different on top of everyone naturally seeing colors differently and any additions of any sort of filters will affect color perception too. I know some of my dragons can look dramatically different from this pc vs my art pc vs my phone or ipad. Digital displays also do more of the color blending with adjacent colors, shifting it more one way or another based on what colors it is next to. Light and colors are funny like that.

On my screen, it's blue. It's dusty, greyish blue, but also the perfect transitional colour between true blue and true green, so it's greenish blue or bluish green. Technically, it's called "spruce green" so to a lot of people it seems to be green. And I wholeheartedly agree with ElimearFoster on the matter, it also depends on its relation to others.
Also, turn off your night light/blue light filter if you have it on, then check xD different screens will make colours appear sooo different. When I use my Mum's laptop and mine simultaneously, I have to consult my laptop (with a far superior screen) to check what the colours actually look like.

Green! I also consider teal to be more green too though.
Not FR's teal to be clear. FR's turquoise is teal. I don't know what to call FR's teal, but it's too blue-tinted to be teal for me. True teal is right in the middle of green and blue, AKA dark cyan, with some allowance closer to green than to blue. My brain considers dark cyans to be more green and light cyans to be more blue for some reason. Yay in-between colors! :D

One day I'll give my dragons nice profiles, I swear.

I consider it green for the purposes of my project, so that's saying something! I even have a lifelong grudge against that specific color for not being green enough xD

I call Spruce blue, but I'm also someone who only uses the teal range and avoids any cool-toned blue. My perception is biased towards the greenish shades. To me, the green range starts with Pistachio and any blue that's too cool-toned gets called purple (derogatory).

Definitely more green to me. I will say its one of those colors thats just desaturated and muddy enough it can look different contrasted to other colors.
All that being said I have always come across people that had struggled with identifying the middle green blue range of colors and so many people so sure of the colors being blue end up outnumbered by the green-see-ers.
I distinctly remember arguing with a kid in elementary school over the color of bread mold. To him, bread mold was unmistakably a BRIGHT blue. I thought he was crazy! There was nothing bright nor blue about the bread mold. Maybe you could make some argument about it being on the edge in between but he didn't think that either!
...Honestly the color of bread mold is pretty similar to spruce.
