Ibraheem

Ibraheem is a given name used in many Muslim communities as a variant transliteration of Ibrahim, the Arabic form of the patriarch Abraham. The form is derived from the Hebrew name Avraham, meaning "father of multitudes" or "father of many nations." In Islam, the Prophet Ibrahim is revered as a model of monotheism and obedience to God, and the name is commonly chosen to reflect religious heritage.

The spelling Ibraheem with a double “e” is common in several languages to reflect a long vowel; it is particularly found among Urdu- and Punjabi-speaking communities, as well as in parts of Africa and among diaspora populations.

Variants of the name include Ibrahim, Ibrahem, Ebrahim, and Ibraham, among others, reflecting different linguistic and orthographic traditions. Each variant corresponds to local pronunciation and script, while preserving the same underlying root identity.

Usage is widespread across the Middle East, North Africa, South Asia, and Sub-Saharan Africa, and among diaspora communities in Europe and the Americas. The name is typically associated with Muslim communities, though related forms of the name appear in various religious and cultural contexts due to the figure’s prominence in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

Related names include Ibrahim and Avraham, as well as Abraham in English-language contexts.
