The name Hallum is a boy's name of English origin meaning "at the rocks, at the nook".

A way to Hal and an alternative to Callum, with English surname refers to somewhere rocky. Also spelled as Hallam (the form used by the poet Lord Tennyson for his son, in honor of his friend, Arthur Hallam), this variation was chosen in 2025 by influencers Josie and Kelton Balka for their son's middle name, chosen in honor of Kelton's grandfather.
