"My name is Amber".
Elizabethan English is just like modern English with some dialectical twists. For example, in All's Well That Ends Well, we find "My name, my good lord, is Parolles." In Antony and Cleopatra, "My name is Thyreus." and "My name is Proculeius." In Comedy of Errors we find "my name is Dromio.", in Coriolanus "My name is Caius Coriolanus", in Henry IV Part I "My name is Harry Percy.", in Henry VI Part II "my name is Walter Whitmore", in Julius Caesar, "Truly, my name is Cinna.", in King John " My name is Constance; I was Geffrey's wife", in King Lear "My name is Edgar and thy father's son.", in Macbeth "My name's Macbeth.", in Measure for Measure "I am the poor duke's constable, and my name is Elbow", and so on and on.
Although the straightforward way of saying this is far and away the most common, there are occasionally variations on it. Shylock, for example, says "Shylock is my name."
