What does everyone think of Amber as a girl’s name?

Love it! It would have been high up our girls list but I have 2 boys!

Very pretty, I like it a lot.

Very pretty.

Sugarpiehoneyeye · 05/10/2017 20:14

Lovely !

I automatically think stripper name although I don't actually think that it's a stripper name but in most American things shows etc that seems to be the connotation

RhonaRugMuncherr · 05/10/2017 20:19

Really like it. It transitions well through the ages

NutellaDoughnut · 05/10/2017 20:24

Love it.

Muddlingalongalone · 05/10/2017 20:28

I'm not mad keen tbh - not sure why. Now because of Amber Rudd but I didn't like it before that.
I know one aged 4 and one aged 2 and it's their name and they are lovely so nothing specific explain why I feel like it.

crazypenguinlady · 05/10/2017 20:29

My friend has a new baby called Amber. She is adorable so I like it because of her :)

WhenEnoughIsEnough · 05/10/2017 20:31

Love it

PeasAndHarmony · 05/10/2017 20:38

Lovely name, unusual without being made up or ridiculous.

IncidentalAnarchist · 05/10/2017 20:39

Stripper

whiteroseredrose · 05/10/2017 20:39

Yes. I was going to say hooker along with Ruby and Jade. Sad

whiteroseredrose · 05/10/2017 20:41

DM used to work in a school in a red light district. Ruby, Amber and Jade were very common names on the cards in telephone boxes there.

IrregularCommentary · 05/10/2017 20:42

Love it. Was on my shortlist for dd.

sonyaya · 05/10/2017 20:44

Thanks all - interesting! Husband doesn’t like it because he says it is stripper. Maybe he has a point!

Also, Ruby was my other name Confused

Not keen, sounds like an 80s American cheerleader.

trinitybleu · 05/10/2017 21:13

How about Amberley?

Argeles · 05/10/2017 21:14

Amber is nice. I also really like Ambreen (Arabic and Urdu), and Anbarin (Persian and Arabic).

littlepooch · 05/10/2017 21:14

I love it.

soupforbrains · 05/10/2017 21:15

I work with a lot of Italians and the Italian version is Ambra which I love too.
