I love it.

Oscar Ambrose used to be one of my favorite combos for two of my favorite authors, Oscar Wilde and Ambrose Bierce. Now I don't necessarily like the names 'for' anything but just because they're great names. I think Ambrose is very cool.

I like it very much, but I don't know that I'd have the guts to use it as a fn. But I love it and names with a similar flavor. :b

Ambrose is one that I can't really do--as cool as Ambrose Bierce was, the name doesn't appeal to me. That said, someone else with a kid named Ambrose would totally win, I tell you.

Cambria's ideas for siblings are really good, so I'll leave off on coming up with them for now.

Ambrosius?

I don't really like Ambrose myself, but, for some odd reason, I love Ambrosius. It was the name of a king in "The Crystal Cave" by Mary Stewart, the book and he seemed very powerful but very caring also.

It reminds me of Ambrosia which is a dessert and I am strictly against naming children after anything you eat.
