Albert Barnes Commentary 2 Chronicles 2:3

"And Solomon sent to Huram the king of Tyre, saying, As thou didst deal with David my father, and didst send him cedars to build him a house to dwell therein, [even so deal with me]." — 2 Chronicles 2:3 (ASV)

Huram, the form used throughout Chronicles (except in 1 Chronicles 14:1) for the name of both the king and the artisan whom he lent to Solomon (2 Chronicles 2:13; 4:11, 16), is a late corruption of the true native word, Hiram (see marginal note and reference).
