Ambiamorous was coined sometime before May 11th, 2016, by a polyamorous friend of Tumblr user The Moorcat to describe their fluid relationship style.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20230712171727/https://polyrolemodels.tumblr.com/post/144222638994/the-moorcat</ref> It was independently coined again on April 17th, 2017, by Poly Land writer Page Turner.<ref>https://poly.land/2017/04/17/make-mono-poly-easier-monogamy-polyamory-spectrum-not-binary/</ref> The term was proposed in response to controversy that monogamy and polyamory were two ends of a spectrum that did not interact.
The term omniamorous existed before, at least since 2011 in polyamory circles and forums, describing the same or a similar situation.<ref>https://polyamory.com/threads/omniamory.13800/</ref><ref>https://beyond-mogai-pride-flags.tumblr.com/post/730297086763008000/omniamorous-pride-flag</ref>
==Flags==
The primary ambiamorous flag was coined by mod AP of Tumblr blog beyond-mogai-pride-flags on April 14th, 2019. The colors come from a redesign of the polyamorous flag, with white alluding monogamy. The flag uses the Greek letter alpha because both start with "a", resembling the monogamous and polyamorous designs.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20230712163221/https://www.tumblr.com/beyond-mogai-pride-flags/184195216095/ambiamorous-pride-flag?source=share</ref>
The second flag was coined by an unknown. The third ambiamorous flag was coined by Tumblr user sleepygender on March 9th, 2020, and holds no confirmed meaning.
