Meaning:Comb; Brewery
Kam is a gender-neutral baby name of Dutch origin. Even saying this serene name feels calming! It means "comb" or "brewery," and originated as an occupational surname, denoting a person's job as a comb maker or wool comber. Kamme is the Dutch word for "brewery," so that explains the alternative translation. Kam is also considered a variation of the Scottish name Cameron, meaning, perhaps less favorably, “crooked nose.” As a given name, Kam pays homage to history while also sounding and looking fresh with a capital "K!" No doubt you'll be occupied and kept busy with baby Kam when they arrive into your world.
