Best Answer

The name 'Abram' means 'exalted father' and is not directly translated as such in Scripture. However, when his name is changed to Abraham this is:

Genesis 17:5New King James Version (NKJV)

5 No longer shall your name be called Abram, but your name shall be Abraham; for I have made you a father of many nations.
