Origin:Hebrew
Meaning:Uncle; Father’s brother
Ahab is a masculine name of Hebrew origin. While it literally translates to “father’s brother,” it’s interpreted to mean “uncle.” If you’ve got a love for American literature, the Moby-Dick character Captain Ahab may pop into your head at the sound of this name. While the captain’s story is a warning about obsession and seeking vengeance, the name Ahab can be a great way to instill baby’s future love for books and storytelling.
