Opinions on Abraham nn bram

[Louise267]

What do you think of the above name? Having twin boy and girl and have decided on Polly for our girl. Do you like Polly and Bram? X

Loooove Bram.

The Bram I know has a sister called Romy.

^^ What Vince said (I don't think that's the first time I've posted that :) )

Abraham is fabulous, though, and I like Polly - though not sure the two names really 'go' togther - though perhaps just as well, as it'll be good to emphasise their individuality.

I always thought I would call boy/girl twins Thomas and Tamsin, which is very much not individuality-emphasising

[VinceNoirLovesHowardMoon]

I don't like bram. Abe is nice though

[unicornthong]

Pram and Brolly

I absolutely love both names though!

[Gummibaers]

I really l ike Abraham.

But I pronounce it with the emphasis on the ABE so would probably shorten to Abe or Abrie.

[AGnu]

I adore it. DH doesn't, sadly, or one of our DSs would be Bram, the other probably Moses. I so should've snuck out & registered them when he wasn't looking!

[Paperbacked]

I know an incredibly cool elderly Abraham who has always gone as Braham, which I think is likewise pretty cool. Bram also good.

[serin]

Oooh! I grew up in a village called Abram!

I like the name Bram. Goes well with Polly.

[Sothatsflatwhite]

Abraham is a great name

[A4Document]

I like Abraham, with Abe for short. Bram reminds me of bran and getting enough fibre! I like Bramley but to me, it's a surname and apple, rather than a first name. Not keen on Polly I'm afraid, sorry. I like the suggestion of Penelope (Penny) or how about Philippa (Pippa)?

[RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie]

Love Bram. Not keen on Polly.

[ChardonnayKnickertonSmythe]

You can have Bramley for a girl.

[JanuaryJuniper]

Oh wow, love Polly and Bram they are perfect together! Abe is also good as is Abram!

[NannyR]

In the bible, Abraham was originally called Abram - that might work better if you want Bram as a nickname.

[Louise267]

Yeah like bram stoker. He was an Abraham

[Louise267]

Bram and Abe are both shortenings. Do like both though

[museumum]

Abraham is surely most likely to be called Abe?
It's a good name though.

[Alisvolatpropiis]

Well Bran is itself a Welsh name prn Brahn, means Raven.

It is also unfortunately quite synonymous with a breakfast cereal.

[SirChenjin]

Like Bram Stoker?

No, don't like it at all, sounds like Pram or Bran. Love Abe though.

[Sophronia]

I like it. I'd prefer Penelope and Abraham nn Polly and Bram.

[Queenhoneybee]

I know a little Abraham, he goes by Abe. Suits him.

[Alisvolatpropiis]

Yes!

Great name, works with Polly, good nickname.

[MitzyLeFrouf]

I love, love, love the name Bram.

Good choice!
