Just wanting to hear thoughts on what first comes to mind when you hear the name Amberley/Amberly? Pronounced like Kimberley.

I really like it and think it’s unique and different and we will most likely have a little redhead as I’m a redhead and partner is blonde/ginger. Just want to hear opinions!

It would most likely get shortened to Amber.

I dunno if that works.
I like Amber and I like Kimberley.
Amberley sounds too much.

I prefer Amber. “Unique” names don’t go down well on here. However, I do think Amberley is sort of OK if you like it. Amber Leigh? I don’t think your child’s hair colouring should have anything’s to do with naming, though.

I don't dislike it but I much prefer "Amber"
I went to school with a Kimberly and she spent her childhood being called "dairylea" 🤦🏻‍♀️
