Abramo

Abramo is the Italian given name that corresponds to the biblical Abraham. It functions as the Italian form of the Hebrew name Avraham, which is commonly understood to mean "father of many" or "father of a multitude." In Italian usage, Abramo is a male name and appears in religious, literary, and historical contexts.

The name is rooted in the biblical patriarch who, in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam, is regarded as the founder of the covenant between God and the descendants of his son Isaac. Because of this association, Abramo has a presence in Italian religious texts and cultural references, particularly in discussions or retellings of biblical narratives and Italian religious art and literature.

Variants of the name include Avraham, Avram, and Abraham in other languages. The form Abramo is primarily used in Italian-speaking communities, and its popularity has varied over time, often reflecting broader naming trends rather than a specific individual or movement.

In contemporary Italy, Abramo is recognized as a traditional name that may be chosen for its classic, religious, or cultural resonance, though it is less common among younger generations compared with more contemporary Italian names.
