It has been borne by numerous individuals in the Old Testament, most notably two kings of Judah: Jehoram, son of Jehoshaphat, and Jehoram, son of Ahab, who ruled over the tribes of Israel and Judah respectively.

The name has since been infrequently used as a given name throughout history, though it is still occasionally found among various Christian communities.
