[Opinions] Re: Cambria
Oh that's awful :( Hope the issue can be solved!I personally dislike Cambria. Ricky Schroder (actor) has a daughter named Cambrie (which apparently was made up by her mom in relation to the city Cambridge and is pronounced CAYM-bree, not CAM-bree) and she seems to be super annoying on instagram so I think of super skinny girls with lip fillers :( I watched her father in "Little Lord Fauntleroy" and wanted to see what he was up to which was how I found out about her. I'd honestly prefer Cambridge, at least that has some substance.It makes me think of cheese (try Cambrie, the perfect blend of Camenbert and Brie!).Cambria is better than Cambrie. But I find it really harsh. It also seems super trendy because Cameron (and Camryn for girls) was so common and it also vaguely reminds me of Brianna and other trendy 80s/90s favorites such as Kayla, Brittany, Bria, Brynn, Bree, Brooke etc.

Well, this definitely affects my answer about Cambria. I've been pronouncing it CAYM-bree-uh this whole time, and I like that pronunciation. CAM-bree-uh reminds me of Cameron, which I also like but think of as purely a male name.

To be honest, I always thought Cambrie was CAM-bree and Cambria CAM-bree-ah.Only the Schroder daughter gave me the idea of CAYM-bree. And CAYM-bree-ah. But as Cambridge is CAYM-bridge I guess both could work? Maybe you could do a survey here.
