Meaning & origin

The name Deborh is a rare spelling variant of the classic Deborah. According to US Social Security data, Deborh was first recorded in 1951 and saw its peak year in 1956, though it never ranked among the top 1000 names. Its trajectory has been stable but with very low usage, and no top states are associated with it. The standard form Deborah has been popular for decades, but this particular spelling remains uncommon, making it a distinctive choice for parents seeking an unusual variation of a traditional name.

Deborh is a rare spelling variant of Deborah, which derives from the Hebrew name דְּבוֹרָה (Devorah), meaning 'bee'. The name appears in the Old Testament as a prophetess and judge. The variant spelling Deborh is uncommon, with recorded usage primarily in the mid-20th century, likely as a simplified spelling.
