    Doesn't "pam" also mean "favorite"?

    Yes, it could mean "favorite."
    Most of the time, "pa'm" means "mine" or "my own".
    Remember that you will see "pa" accompanied with other Haitian Creole pronouns also.
    Check out the following examples:

    Sa se aktè pa'm nan.
    That's my favorite actor.

    Sa se machin pa'm nan.
    That's my kind of car.

    Sa se manje pa'l la.
    This is his own food.

    Sa se peyi pa'n nan.
    This is our own country.

    Eske sa se pa'm nan?
    Is this mine?

    Eske sa se pa'w la?
    Is this yours?
