Amberley

Amberley comes from an intriguing blend of the natural and the pastoral. It combines 'amber,' a fossilized tree resin known for its warm, golden hue, with '-ley,' an Old English suffix meaning 'clearing' or 'meadow.' This gives the name a lovely, earthy quality, suggesting a bright, open space filled with warmth and light. It feels both elegant and contemporary, a perfect fit for someone with a creative and friendly spirit.

In terms of popularity, Amberley has experienced some notable shifts over the years. It saw a remarkable leap in the late 1970s, jumping 4353 spots from one year to the next between 1977 and 1978, and reached its highest rank of #3169 in 1987. However, the name has never cracked the top 100. More recently, it dropped from #8058 to #13446 in 2010, and its latest ranking is #7223 in 2024.

Amberley carries a warm, approachable vibe that feels both fresh and familiar. It's an elegant choice that suits someone with a lively imagination and a welcoming nature. With its ties to both nature and open spaces, Amberley is a name that feels like a breath of fresh air.
