The name and photo don’t match.
What are you talking about??????
It should read ZANVIL
Good catch.
Rav Pam was also the Rosh Yeshiva of Chaim Berlin at one point.
Any relationship to the late Harav Pam from Torah Vadaas?
Father.
Why is the name ZANVIL absent on Rav (Avrohom) Pams’ z’ll matzeivah?

Apparently he stopped using it (to a certain extent) after arriving in the US
There are several exchanges of letters between Rav Meir Pam and Rav Mordechai Aryeh Haberman starting at p.12 over here:

Rabbi Meir Pam learned in Knesses Bais Yitzchak, in Kovno, then with Rabbi Laizer Gordon, and finally in the Chofetz Chaim’s Kollel Kodashim, where two of his colleagues were Rabbi Elchonon Wasserman and Rabbi Yosef Kahaneman, the future Ponevizher Rav. Rabbi Kahaneman later was the Rav of Vidz for a time, and invited Reb Meir to say the shiur in the yeshiva there.
He was a son in law of Reb Shimon Dov The Rov of Shedlitz Is that the Grandfather Of Rabbi Brizman Shlitah the rov of Phildelphia
