Gaham Gaham

Gaham is a son of Nahor with Reumah.

The name Gaham is the name Ham preceded by the letter gimel. BDB assumes relations to an Arabic verb meaning to kindle or burn, and translates the name Flame. However, our attention is drawn to the root giah (guah 345), burst forth (see Gihon).

The name Gaham may mean Flame or Burstings Forth.
