Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Hebrejské meno Kerem vychádza zo slova כֶּרֶם (kerem), ktoré znamená „vinica, vinohrad“. Nezávisle existuje turecké mužské meno Kerem, spojené s tureckým kerem z arabského karam, „štedrosť, veľkodušnosť, ušľachtilosť“. Ide o dve menné tradície s rovnakým latinkovým zápisom, nie o konkurenčné teórie pôvodu jedného mena. Hebrejský pôvod je tu uvedený ako primárny podľa zadania.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Hebrejské slovo a jeho použitie ako osobného mena dokladá slovník Milog; arabský významový základ rozoberá TDV İslâm Ansiklopedisi, turecké osobné meno uvádza Behind the Name. Skloňovanie je aplikáciou všeobecných pravidiel Morfológie slovenského jazyka, nie citáciou osobitného stanoviska JÚĽŠ SAV k menu Kerem. Konkrétne heslo v monografii Milana Majtána nebolo overené. Štyri až sedem zaužívaných slovenských zdrobnenín sa nepodarilo doložiť, preto je pole prázdne. Medzinárodné podoby zachovávajú pôvodný zápis; nejde o doložené samostatné domáce ekvivalenty.
