It reminds me of Instagram in my opinion but it's still cool name.

I completely agree about the Instagram thing, though I can’t say I like it. However, I definitely appreciate the uniqueness; I prefer Ingrid, personally.

The meaning is really cool. It has occurred to me that it kind of looks like "in grams", which is kind of weird if you use the metric system. So, I wouldn't use it.

It's a family name so I'm partial to it. Graham is a great alternative or nickname.

Ingram's handsome and a little dour, which I love.

My immediate association is Laura Ingraham (pronounced exactly the same), who I don't have a high opinion of, and then I think of Blanche Ingram from Jane Eyre who was a snob. So I kind of hate it, with those being my only associations.If I pretend I have no associations...the sound itself is nice (I like Inga, Ingrid, Ingemar; Graham is ok though a bit milquetoast). The meaning's fun.

My brother-in-law’s guide dog is named Ingram, so that’s the entirety of my association with it - golden retriever who is a genius on the work harness and a complete floppy dork off it.

Hi!Ingram is very fascinating in my opinion. It is quite simple to spell and pronounce. I'd like to see it more used. I personally like the meaning. It is so Medieval, Germanic and a bit Viking-style as well (also if actually isn't). Good name!
