I have found a first name of 'Froim' on the 1912 Grodno (Belarus)voting list. I have searched for derivation or translation of this name with no success. Does anyone recognize???
It's a Yiddish contraction of the Hebrew name Efrayim (English spelling usually Ephraim). The origin is biblical (Genesis 41:52).
