Before I answer, how are you pronouncing it? I say GRAY-um, and find the GRAM prn a bit odd.1. I really don't know if I like it. It's kind of an old-man name to me, and it's a common surname where I'm from as well. It's not really my cup of tea, but I don't dislike it either. Haha sorry that wasn't very helpful was it!2. Graham and Henry. No wait Graham Henry is the All Blacks coach lol.
Graham and Francis
Graham and Harry
Graham and Curtis
Graham and Desmond
Graham and Patrick
Graham and Dalton

I really like Graham and would consider using it. It is on my "short list" of boy names. The only issues I have are it not being "tough" enough and the entire "graham cracker" thing.I think it would make a great fn or mn.I love the combo Graham Louis.

OkIt's my grandfather's name. I haven't seen it only anyone under the age of 60 in a long time so I suppose it would be quite unexpected.

Graham is one of those names I don't know if I love or hate. I really like it because I see it as a masculine, almost regal name. I always imagine a Graham as someone smart and sophisticated but without being boring or snobbish. On the other hand I don't like the associations with graham crackers etc and I don't really like the look or sound of it.
Garham works both as a first and middle name in my opinion. I really like the combo Graham Thomas which also happens to be the name of a certain rose.

Love it!1) I think it's very handsome! I'd use it, but DH has crossed it off the list. I'd use it as a first name, but it would of course make a fine middle name too.2) Some names I think have a similar feel are: Alasdair, Bryn, Ciaran, Daire, Diarmaid, Eamonn, Edward, Fionn, Francis, Gregory, Hamish, Harrison, Henry, Ian, Jack, James, Mackenzie, Morgan, Oliver, Owen, Patrick, Rory, Theodore, Thomas, and William. Girls are a little harder... maybe Allison, Bridget, Effie, Fiona, Honora, Margaret, Maureen, Molly, Nina, Nora, and Virginia.
