In onomastics, Kurm may appear as a surname or as part of given names, often as a shortened or variant form of longer names. In geography, Kurm is the name of small settlements or locality names in various regions, where the exact place depends on local language and historical spelling conventions.

In linguistics, kurm can occur as a lexical item, root fragment, or abbreviation within discussions of language families, including references to Kurdish dialects where Kurmanji is sometimes denoted by similar spellings in some texts. In cultural contexts, Kurm may be used as a fictional name for characters, places, or organizations in works of fiction, with meaning determined by the author.

The term may also function as an acronym in specialized fields, with expansions that are specific to a given domain.
