Hello,

Amber is the only girl name that my partner & I both agree on, but it’s not at the top of either of our lists, so looking for some feedback :)

It does make me think of that weapon that won Love Island...but she's unlikely to be an enduring reference. I don't mind it. Has a warm feel as a pp said.

@AuntieStella . I’ve got an Amber and named her after the heroine in this book.

My beautiful niece is Amber-Rose.

We've got a 7 year old Amber. She's the only one in her school but she loves her name and the fact it's a little different.

felulageller · 25/08/2021 19:09

It's really nice.

alexdgr8 · 25/08/2021 19:01

Love it.

Fl0w3ry · 25/08/2021 18:34

I always liked the name but in current times it just makes me think of red, green and Amber list countries so it has put me off it a bit!

TheLovleyChebbyMcGee · 25/08/2021 18:34

I really like it, it'd be contender for our next child except there's already one in the family and also, I named a childhood pet that!!

ArabellaPilkington · 25/08/2021 18:33

Popular round here with teens - I know 3
