[Opinions] Ember
Thoughts on Ember?
Replies
I really, really like it. It upstages Amber, but the latter has been in longer use and will get better responses. Ember is safer as a NN or middle name. As a first name, I think that unwanted expectations might come with it. For example, the name doesn't make sense on someone who doesn't want to come out of their shell and never does. Imagine a flame that doesn't even flicker. It just seems wrong.
I love it, so much better than Amber. Will make for a courageous girl. However, that Disney movie may have ruined it.(I'm in a love hate relationship with Disney)

I love Disney and the movie you're referencing. Generally, I think names are only ruined if people act as if they're ruined, but... it's not like I'd name my daughter Snow White. Not just because it's silly on a real person, but because its movie performed so poorly at the box office. Unpopular opinion, but I really enjoyed it. Being a Disney fan feels embarrassing RN.
I have loved it for a long time.
Prefer Amber
Who wants to be a dying fire? Especially if they had a sibling named Ashley!
I like it, it's been a part of my personal email handle for a lot of years now LOL
I really like it. I like Amber too, always have.
Just feels like a fad to me.
I prefer Embla to Ember and Ember to Amber.
Don't really like it, prefer Amber
I like it but Amber is better to me.
Nice puns!
I prefer Amber, but I think Ember is pretty!
