Dislike Abraham

^ The Op isn't asking if you like the name, she's asking if you would think a person called Abraham is Jewish.

That aside, "no" I wouldn't assume so but I didn't vote because I think people will answer according to whether they like the name or not (as evidenced by the first Guest) instead of focusing on the question at hand.

^ I agree with Sorca.

I agree!! I would assume religious (or potentially honoring a family member), but not necessarily religious

Sorry not necessarily *Jewish that is supposed to say

The only Abraham I know isn't Jewish, so I wouldn't assume that.

I'd be just as likely to guess Christian as Jewish actually.

I prefer Abram

Oops, I voted "yes" thinking it meant should we use the name or not. I need to read better. I wouldn't assume an Abraham was Jewish at all. I may think that he's somewhat religious, but that's all. I think you should use it! It's a great name.
