His father-name was Ambaráto (in Telerin), meaning 'High Noble' and resembling the names Findaráto and Angaráto of his brothers Finrod and Angrod; a similar name was later given to his half-cousin Amrod.
Born to Fëanor and Nerdanel during the Years of the Trees in Aman, he was the eldest of their seven sons (his brothers were Maglor, Celegorm, Caranthir, Curufin, and twins Amrod and Amras).
