How Ember sounds
With two syllables, Ember has a balanced, easy rhythm that is simple to say and to call across a room. Ember ends on an open vowel, which leaves the sound soft and open at the close. Say Ember out loud and it glides from one syllable to the next, which is how the scheme recognizes a water sound. More families have been choosing Ember in recent years, which gives it a modern, up-and-coming feel. U.S. birth records list Ember overwhelmingly for girls.
The Saju view
Counted by its first sound, Ember is an earth name, since that sound is made with an open throat and a soft breath. Ember is an earth name in the sound-element table, which is why it ranks near the top for charts that lack earth. Because earth feeds metal in the cycle of generation, Ember can also help a chart that is short on metal, though less directly. A chart that already holds plenty of earth is better served by another name, since Ember would add to it.

The astrology view
For Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces, Ember reads as a name from their own element; for Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn, as a companion. Ember is a less natural fit for fire and air signs, whose elements differ from its water sound.
