I really like the name Abram. I was in the Lounge and had read your one survey that you like the name Allan. I know they start with the same letter but I think that Abram Allan would sound so adorable. IMO.

I think it fits quite well with your favourite boys names. Are you looking for girls names to pair with it?
Abram Leander
Abram Benedict
Abram Raphael

Sorry, but the image of a tank is too ingrained in my mind. :-(

This might not fit the style of your other names (which I adore, by the way) but Avram ("AHV-rahm") sounds lovely to my ears. Or even Bram, like Mr. Stoker.

I really like this name, it's short & strong and a little more manageable than Abraham. Abram John or Abram Tobias would be awesome combos

Abram is wonderful. It's been a favorite of mine for years. I'm not good when it comes to sibling-pairing, but it does go quite well with your other favorites. :)

I wouldn't use it but it's a fine name, and it fits very well with the other names.

I really, really like Abram. I prefer it to Abraham, which I think is a little too much.

Very nice, and I like Abraham as well.

I think both Abe and Bram are cute nn's, and Abram fits great with your other faves.

---

With Abram, a few ideas are:

---

Abram & Levi (my fave, I think)
Abram & Jonah
Abram & Thaddeus
Abram & Micah
Abram & Malachi
Abram & Jude
Abram & Paul
Abram & Caleb
Abram & Samuel
Abram & Joktan
Abram & Zephaniah (Abe & Zeph)
Abram & Issac

---

Abram & Naomi
Abram & Mara
Abram & Deborah
Abram & Lydia
Abram & Judith
Abram & Eva
Abram & Miriam
Abram & Leah
Abram & Tamar
Abram & Tabitha
Abram & Ruth
Abram & Keturah (then again, maybe not)
Abram & Abigail
Abram & Zara

Personally I prefer Abraham, because that is the name God gave Abram after he changed it. I also think Abraham fits better with your other names.

I love it.

Abram is much better than Abraham for a child, IMHO. Abraham's a great name, and I like it a lot, but it's pretty outdated. Jonas and Tobias are also great, and Laurence and Peter are slowly growing on me.

With the brothers you have listed, I like Abram...but as a name, I love Bram. Yes, there's the Bram Stoker thing, but I don't think the connection is overwhelming.

Abram I'd stick with the biblical/hebrew references- Ezra, Ruth, Susannah, Eve etc.

---

Bram would be more flexible- biblical names like Ezra/Ruth/Eve, but also "jazz" names like Art, Chet/Chester, Etta and older european names like Adele and Tilda, Linnea...

---

I love it with Eliezer

---

My MIL used friend pairings in the Bible - David and Jonathan for her son, which I think is a bit clever. I do like Abram. Abram and Eliezer were very close in the text (and I love the name Eliezer).
