Aviram is a masculine personal name of Hebrew origin, composed of the elements av (father) and ram (exalted), and historically attested in biblical sources as a leader of the tribe of Judah. In contemporary English usage—pronounced /ɑviˈrɑm/ (ah-vee-RAHM)—it conforms to standard Anglo-American phonological patterns, with primary stress on the second syllable. Semantically, Aviram signifies “my father is exalted,” reflecting a theologically inflected onomastic tradition. In the United States, its occurrence remains low but consistent: first registered in 2002 with five newborns (SSA rank 810), reappearing in 2018 with five occurrences (rank 907), and since then fluctuating between five and eight annual births, most recently eight in 2024 (rank 916). These figures indicate a distinctive, technically resonant choice within modern male naming conventions.
