I like this as a nickname for Abraham. It's cool sounding.

I like this name, it's short and strong; a good name for a boy. It's quite popular where I live (Holland) but people mostly use it as a name on itself rather than as a short form of Abraham. My parents used to call me "Brammetje", a pet form of Bram, before I was born and they didn't know yet if I was a girl of a boy.

I adore Bram – especially after reading his masterpiece ‘Dracula’. Whether it’s short for Abraham or Abram (which I prefer Abraham) it’s a nice nickname, and also wonderful by itself. Also, it has a lovely gothic edge to it. (:
