Abram

Pre-covenant Hebrew father

Abram is a male given name, the original name of the biblical patriarch Abraham before God renamed him.

The name appears in Genesis and means "exalted father" in Hebrew.

Some families still use Abram as a given name, though Abraham is more common: Abram was named after his great-grandfather.
