Graham

• Graham started out as a name I thought was stupid but now I like. It sounds strong and sophisticated. I have heard two pronounciations: "grey-um" and "gram" I think the first one sounds like someone with a bad southern accent so I really prefer "Gram".

• I've really grown to love this name lately. I think it's very old-fashioned and gentlemanly sounding, which I love. Too bad my boyfriend isn't crazy about it.

• Strong but not overbearing name.

This is from an English surname meaning "gravelly place." It is also sometimes spelled Graeme.
