Create a hexadecimal colour based on a string with JavaScript

I want to create a function that will accept any old string (will usually be a single word) and from that somehow generate a hexadecimal value between #000000 and #FFFFFF, so I can use it as a colour for a HTML element.

Maybe even a shorthand hex value (e.g: #FFF) if that’s less complicated. In fact, a colour from a ‘web-safe’ palette would be ideal.
