KJV Translation Count — Total: 3x
The KJV translates Strong's G5 in the following manner: Abba (3x).

  1. Abba = "father"

    1. father, customary title used of God in prayer. Whenever it occurs in the New Testament it has the Greek interpretation joined to it, that is apparently to be explained by the fact that the Chaldee "ABBA" through frequent use in prayer, gradually acquired the nature of a most sacred proper name, to which the Greek speaking Jews added the name from their own tongue.

STRONGS G5:
Ἀββᾶ [WH -βά], Hebrew אָב father, in the Chaldean emphatic state, אַבָּא i. e. ὁ πατήρ, a customary title of God in prayer. Whenever it occurs in the N. T. (Mark 14:36; Romans 8:15; Galatians 4:6) it has the Greek interpretation subjoined to it; this is apparently to be explained by the fact that the Chaldee אַבָּא, through frequent use in prayer, gradually acquired the nature of a most sacred proper name, to which the Greek-speaking Jews added the appellative from their own tongue. Respecting its accent see Tdf. Proleg. p. 102; Kautzsch, Grammatik d. Biblisch-Aramäischen u. s. w. (Leipzig, 1884) p. 8.
