Saw the name [name]Amoret[/name] the other day on Nameberry. Had never heard of it. I love it though. Would it sound classic or like a Yooneek name?

I, personally, love [name]Amoret[/name]. I think it’s beautiful and distinctive and warm. :slight_smile: Many people have not heard it, that said, it doesn’t sound yoonique or made up, it simply sounds unheard of. I may be biased though. :wink:

I looooove the name [name]Amoret[/name]. It doesn’t sound at all ‘yooneek’ to me because I know where it comes from: [name]Edmund[/name] [name]Spenser[/name]'s The Faerie Queene. I’m not sure if [name]Spenser[/name] made it up, but that’s certainly a legitimate literary origin. To me it sounds classic.

It’s from The Faerie [name]Queen[/name]. It means “little love”, as in someone little. [name]Amoret[/name] was the sister of Belphoebe, and she represents married love. Engaged to Scudamour, kidnapped by Busirane and saved by the female knight Britomart. The Faerie [name]Queen[/name] is a poem full of good names!

I think it’s an exquisite name.

I think it is lovely :-). It definitely doesn’t have a “yooneek” feeling to me.
