Meaning of Amber

Amber is both a Persian and English baby name coming from the same origins, but with different meanings. Amber/Ambar is a Persian name for girls that means “ambergris“, a fragrant material extracted from a type of whale. While Amber name in Farsi is written as عنبر (which looks like “anbar”), when the word is pronounced the “n” becomes an “m” sound. Amber is also an English word referring to a precious material used in jewelry making, which is made up of fossilized tree resin. Both the Persian and the English names are originally derived from the Arabic word Anbar, which has the meaning of “ambergris” like the Persian name.

A related Persian name for girls is Ambereen, which means someone who is “made of ambergris” or is “like ambergris“, i.e. one who is precious and has a lovely scent.

    My name is Ambreen(عمبيرن) . This is said to have Arabic origins meaning Amber. The name Anbreen (عنبرين) means Ambergris in Arabic. They are two different names.
