Globally, سوهام (Soham 
, سوهام , Souham 
) is a common principally male, but very seldom female first name. The forename سوهام is characteristic of Mauritius, where it is quite a rare masculine name, Israel, where it is quite a rare girly name, and Oman, where it is a rare boy's name. Not in comparison with a country's population, it is the most numerous in India, Bangladesh, and Iraq. Very seldom, سوهام is the last name as well as the forename.
