Ambrosia

My name is Amber and I would love to use Ambrosia as a middle name for a future daughter! In my own opinion Ambrosia is much prettier than Amber and it doesn’t bother me that it’s also a salad haha. If I did use as a first name I like the nicknames Rose/Rosie, Bo and (maybe a bit of a stretch) Bambi.

If it wasn’t a food I would adore this. No one where I live would ever take this name seriously on a child. It’s unfortunate because it’s very beautiful, and the food is not good anyway.

Such a unique and beautiful name! It's like a combination of the two beautiful names, Amber and Rose.

Sounds heavenly.

My middle name is Ambrosia. I love it & always have. People don’t always agree though. “Food of the Gods” Greek Mythology. I’d rather be unique than basic, in my opinion. ☺️.

Ambrosia is a heavenly name with a wonderful meaning, but it is a bit over the top.

Pretty, unique and colourful. Just too bad that it's a custard brand, as that makes it too sugary.

My name is Ambrosia, and my dad named me after the band. I always hated my name growing up. And in middle school we learned about Greek mythology and discovered it meant "Food of the Gods". So that was pretty cool until I was called Ambrosia salad all the time, LOL. But fast forward to 34 years old, I get compliments on how pretty your name is or wow I've never heard that name before... so it makes me like it now, lol. Growing up my whole life my family has always called me "Bros" or "Brosia". And my coworkers and friends call me Ambrosia.

My Name is Ambrosia and I have never been called Amber Or Rosia. I can say I've only ever had compliments on my name. It has also made me stand out in work and business situations.

I personally, think of the band when I hear Ambrosia. But it's pretty. Never met an Ambrosia.

I can't hear this name without thinking of rice pudding and custard. Still, there's worse associations.

It sounds like a decease.

I love this name! It sounds so exotic and beautiful.

It's a pretty name, but the girl would surely be called Amber, which unfortunately has a bit of a bimbo reputation. Rose is also a bit of a boring nickname. What has ruined this name for me is that back in the dark ages of the late 90s, I watched the Bold and the Beautiful (yes, I'm ashamed), and this was the real name of a ditzy character called Amber.

I named my daughter Ambrosia. Everyone loves the name and she has never been associated with rice pudding. Ambrosia is also an old name.

These days you can't really name your daughter this without the risk of people making fun of how she shares a name with a rice pudding brand.
