📖 About Graeme
Graeme is the distinctively Scottish spelling of Graham, tracing back to the English place-name Grantham (Old English: "gravelly homestead"). It became a proud Scottish clan name after the 12th century and was especially popular in mid-20th-century Australia, consistently ranking in the top 35 boys' names between 1952 and 1962 before fading with shifting naming fashions.
