  Blaze is when you get high, Emberley is trend city, and it is spelled "Phoenix".
  
  As for fire related names, Semora (smore), Brushetta (totes different than *bruschetta* and related to the loose brush used to start a fire)...
  
  On second thought I got nothin. Are you a firefighter or a arsonist?

  I honestly want to help you but, I really don't have anything.

  
  

  Like, you could do something mythological, like Helios cause the sun is on fire, and it's a little easier then Prometheus and Hephaestus.

  Ashley, Amber (Ember would be more accurate but that's terrible), Cole, Forrest.... ummm I don't know. This is a bad idea.

  Oh dear Lord! The examples you gave sound like an American Gladiator, not a baby. Maybe something a little less obvious like the Ashley suggestion. I don't know.

  Maybe don't do this theme? Phoenix and Blaze are goofy and make you look like you want your child to be a superhero, and Emberly is gag worthy and falls into the made-up names trend. Not sure why the name has to be fire-related, although by your username I have to wonder if its because you like to get blazed...

  I'm all for names that go together. But maybe names that sound good together or are from the same origin.
  
  I suppose Phoenix and Blaze go together, unique names for children or pets but not a fan of these names on adults which they will turn into.
  
  Here are some that are more subtle:
  Aidan Brandt Bridgette Fia Josiah Serefina Uriah

  Yeah, sorry, not diggin' the names or theme, either.  I feel like if you are going to name a kid Blaze, you might as well make his middle name Cheech or Chong.

  If you're going to do Blaise, please spell it this way. Also, I think if you want to do a fire theme, please consider names that has fire meanings.
  
  The only "fire" sounding name that I can think of is Asher.

  I'm genuinely curious...why do you want a fire theme? That may help us brainstorm ideas more effectively that may relate to what you are going for...

  I disagree with some of the negative comments - I think the ones you've already thought of are nice. Phoenix is pretty for a girl. Helios is my favorite suggestion, and there are some baby name lists out there based on astrological sign you should check out (could look up fire sign baby names) good luck! https://suite.io/carolyn-morgan/51f32rz

  Not a fan of Blaze or Emberly, Phoenix is ok but nms.

  As for names from other languages

  From Sanskrit

  Deepa is a girls name from sanskrit meaning 'lamp'

  Deepika is also a girls name meaning 'little light' (it's sort of the cutesy version of Deepa if you ask me)
  

  Deepam is a less common name meaning' flame' or 'light'

  Prakash is a masculing name is meaning 'a bright light'
  

  
  

  From other languages

  Seraphina is a girls name (which comes from the Biblical angelic being Seraphim associated with fires and flames and purifying coals) that is often translated as 'fiery one'

  Nuri (male) from Aramaic that according to wikipedia mean 'my fire'

  
  

  Apparently there are many celtic names associated with fire, but I haven't looked these translations up myself: Edna, Eithne, Keegan. Kegan,

  Blaise maybe instead of Blaze
  
  Flint? Not really good either
  Ember? Still not great and don't even know if that would be for a by or girl
  
  
  For a girl, maybe Enna...means little fire. I actually know of a little Enna that was born this year.
  
  Other than that I'm kind of lost with this one, there's not really a good option honestly

  If you're going to have a theme, it needs to be subtle. I have some friends who did fire themed names, but you wouldn't know it unless you knew the name's origins. I don't want to post their names so it's easily searchable, but I will give links to the names with origins:

  
  

  (They went with the Gaelic/Scottish meanings for both names, which strengthens the theme. That's something to consider as well)

  FWIW, my LO is Ophelia Ember. My BF fell in love with the name Ember and I let him MN it. I actually think it's pretty but would get confused with Amber a lot. No to Blaze. I know a few little boys named Phoenix but it's NMS. This seems like a tricky theme to work with.

  I think if you're going with a themeit needs to be VERY subtle. Blaise is too obvious. I know a little girl named Phoenix who is adorable, so I like that name. Seraphina is another good girl choice. Asher or Cole work for boys without being too in-your-face with it.

  I agree with most PPs, though I secretly think Ember (without the '-ly') is pretty nice.

  
  

  Just wanted to throw variations of 'Lucy' into the mix (not that I'm biased towards this name or anything :P). It comes from the Latin for 'light' and there's loads of variations (Lucia, Lucille, Lucinda, Lucius, Lucas, Luca, Luke, and I even think Cornelius is from the same root).

  Brilliant suggestion! It reminds me of the Tori Amos album Boys for Pele! Sadly though, I think people would struggle with this pronunciation.

  Thanks! I'm not personally a fan of the theme, but that name could be quite pretty. And yep, totally makes me think of the Tori Amos album :-)
