Isham

Isham is a boy’s name of English origin, meaning “home of the iron one.” First identified in a Saxon village near a local river named Ise, it may also translate to “homestead by the River Ise,” making it a charming choice for a budding history scholar. It’s got quite the royal ring to it, too, with close connections to the Isham Baronets of Lamport Hall in Northamptonshire, England, a high-ranking baronetcy whose lineage spans the 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries.
