So, I've never paid much attention to the name 'Ephraim.' It isn't on my top ten list or anything, but I find I think it is rather nice. Then, today in Engl. Lit. I met a guy with this name, only he spells it 'Efrem.' I've never seen that before. WDYT? ((about the spelling and/or the name in general...))

I quite like it as Ephraim, but not Efrem. By the by, how is it pronounced? Seeing it with the original spelling I would've said Ef-raym, but I'm thinking that's wrong.

I think it can be pronounced Eff-rum or Eee-free-um

to the OP
I don't think I've ever met an Ephraim or an Efrem, but according to the SSA there were 337 Efrain's and 187 Efren's born last year (They are the Spanish version of Ephraim) but neither Ephraim nor Efrem made the top 1000
