How to Pronounce Abrham
Pronounced AY-bruh-ham /ˈeɪ.brə.hæm/Low
Meaning: Abrham is a respelling of Abraham, missing the middle a. Abraham comes from the Hebrew Avraham, traditionally read as 'father of many' or 'father of multitudes.' The dropped vowel is most likely a spelling variant or record artifact rather than a distinct name, so the meaning is fully that of Abraham. It is also a common Amharic form of the name in Ethiopia.Low

History & Origin
Abrham is a shortened spelling of Abraham, which comes from the Hebrew Avraham, 'father of many.' We treat the missing a honestly: it is most likely a spelling variant or record quirk, though Abrham is also a genuine Amharic form used in Ethiopia. Either way the meaning is that of the revered patriarch Abraham.
Abrham appears only rarely in American records, at about fourteen boys a year around its 2000 peak, alongside the far more common Abraham. A boy recorded as Abrham then is in his mid-twenties today, the spelling reflecting either Ethiopian heritage or a simplified rendering of the classic name.
