Ingram Meaning and Origin

Ingram is a name meaning "angle raven", from German and Norman origin.

The name Ingram is originally a surname from Norman name Engelram composed of Engel ‘Angle’ (or Ing, name of Old Norse fertility god) and hramn ‘raven’. In recent years, it has not been a very common name, but it has been used by some notable people such as the American actor Ingram Cecil Connor III, known professionally as Gram Parsons, and the British mathematician and computer scientist Ingram Olkin. Ingram is a perfectly quirky (and super uncommon) choice for a little boy. And to soften it, shortening it to Ing or Graham as nicknames could also be super cute for a young boy who hasn’t yet grown into his name.
