Hi
Does anybody know of a way to send quick texts, so that it doesn't include
the current name at the beginning of it, but doesn't show "CurrentName says:" aswell?

May I suggest using the /me command? that's not exactly what you asked for but it could help you.

It still shows my current name before the message 
Basically i'm trying to send a message in that style.. but I want to customise the colors
When I use the /me, /action commands, it always puts the name at the beginning with the standard purple color,
and when I use a quick text with the colors changed, and with (!NP) in the middle to display the name, the message comes up with the 'name says:' part

That is how MSN Messenger chat works and you can't change that; it's the basic concept of almost all chatting programs. eg: This is the same as with IRC. Every line is prefixed with the name of the person who said the line, it is just the same.
If you want to radically change that, then you need to write your own Messenger client.
