I love Scarlet.

Ooh, you might be on to something. I mean, Amber IS a color and has become a stripper name, BUT, it was pretty common (at least where I grew up) in the 80s. Scarlet was unheard of outside of GWTW.

Scarlet and Phoebe.

I'm going with Amber and Raven. Or Ambyr and Ravyn.

Ohh I bet it is Scarlet.

Visit a police station in Florida and ask to go through a night's worth of police reports. Make note of the names of the women arrested and you'll know what names to steer of. Also note spellings, i.e. Stefani or Destinee

LOL. OP here. This thread has cheered me up, thanks DCUM.

I am Amber, and I wonder where PP grew up where it was common, because I never knew another Amber until my 30s (although the name was clearly gaining pop culture momentum before then).

My sister is Lark but I am totally going to call her Nuthatch now.

I love this thread!

Thanks op!

Lark is great. Well, great 30 years ago, not necessarily as unique now. Isn't Lisa Turtle's name Lark?

PP here-- rural Ohio. There was also a Buffy and more than one Ginger. It's funny how names turned out to be destiny in many cases. Elizabeth and Carolyn and Nicole (from my class) are all doing very well. Buffy, Amber, and one of the Gingers, not so much.

I always wondered what Tiffani-Amber Thiessen's parents were thinking double-dipping on the stripper name.

I read somewhere that her grandmother suggested hyphenating b/c it represented a "stronger" name. Fortunately, she had the good sense to stop hyphenating, but for the record, OP, I would have gone with Amber. Much prettier than Tiffani/Tiffany.

Yes, this is true <hangs head in shame that this is taking up space in my brain>

My sister has a "stripper name" and is a G-15 with the IRS.

A rose is a rose.

OP here. Yes, that's the boat I'm in too. I'm Dr. [stripper name] and doing quite well, and one of the sharpest people I know is a Tiffany who makes everyone she meets think twice about ever stereotyping a person by her name.

My mom just hit it out of the park with my sister, she was going for rare-but-not-made-up with us both, and it worked, but then mine got popular and is now overexposed. My sister's will never ever be on the top 1000 list, but it doesn't hit the ear as weird.

Well, now we just have to know your sister's name!

So what is your name anyway? Paris? Portia? Ivy? Khandi? Monique?

Ivy and Monique are considered stripper names??

Thanks for not keeping us in suspense, OP!! I also knew several Ambers growing up in the 80s in the South - guess it just depends on where you're from. Sorry, it was looked down on as sort of a "country" name when I was growing up.

Don't name your kid after anything shiny (Mercedes), sparkly (Crystal), or edible (Brandi, Candi, Brie) and you'll be just fine.

I never thought of it that way. LOL
