I can't help but think of Amber which makes it seem like a girl name. I like it though, as soon as I get over the initial Amber though.

I thought it would be for a girl. Ambrosio is better for a boy.

Don't like

Love Ambrose, it's warm, cosy, and comfy. I like something soft, vintage and/or naturey with Ambrose.

I like Ambrose, mostly because of Ambrose Bierce.
It's actually made the charts - 958 in 2019, 820 in 2020. It has the same feeling as Desmond (also gaining in popularity) but it gives off a different vibe. Desmond is a cad, Ambrose is a poet.

Reading some of the replies below and the comments for Ambrose, I'm surprised at how many people consider Ambrose feminine.

An obvious nn would be Bro.

All I can think of is Amber Rose. And yes, I've heard of Bierce, and I know it's a guy name. It's still too Amber Rose! Makes me think of perfumed candles.

I've loved Ambrose ever since I had a dream that I had a son named this. He lived in a cave because he studied caves. Makes sense.

The combo from my dream was Ambrose Xavier Winter, so that's always been my go-to Ambrose idea.

Other suggestions:

---

Ambrose Ivor
Ambrose Elijah
Ambrose Malcolm
Ambrose Alexander - not generally an Alexander fan but this would be handsome
Ambrose Ignatius
Ambrose Algernon - can't resist
Ambrose Percival
Ambrose Leo
Ambrose Mordecai
Ambrose Lucius

Even though Ambrose is very "British boarding school," I still like the name, though I'd more likely use it as a middle.

It’s ok for a boy. I think Ambrose sounds feminine.
