Amaranth

Amaranth is a beautiful herb with bright fuchsia flowers and a tasty seed that flavors many Eastern dishes. The name is filled with potential for the more adventurous namer, with nickname potential (Ammy, Mara) and a fresh sound that still fits in with all the Amelias and Ambers in the playground.

Pronounced AM-uh-ranth.

As of October 2026, Amaranth ranked #15440 in US births in 2022 SSA, peaked at #13901 in 2018.
