An uncommon Hebrew pick — distinctive and rare.
Jaheim is a boy's and girl's baby name of Hebrew origin, a creative variant of Jah (Hebrew for God) combined with -heim (Germanic, 'home'), creating a name meaning roughly 'God is home' or dwelling with the divine. The name became associated with R&B singer Jaheim, whose smooth vocal style defined 2000s soul music.
Jaheim was #740 twenty years ago and has since drifted to #2344, but its charm endures.
