What do you think of the name Asher for a boy?


I love it.

I was reading Daniel chapter 1-3 (I can't remember which one the name was in) and the name was mentioned there.

I LOVE it and almost named my last boy it, but my last name starts with SH, and it sounds like a sneeze all together.

I love it.
The ONLY bad association I have with it is Asher Flemming from Gilmore Girls, but I can get over it because I like the name so much.

I like it!
It kind of reminds me of Anne Rice though ... I think (dredging my memories) one of the characters in Lasher goes by Asher.

I love it. It's also the name of one of Jacob's 12 sons.

I've loved it ever since I found it in the Bible during religion class in the 5th grade.

Love...may never get to use because my nephew named his son Asher ( and the second one was Liam, which was also on my list)

I love it, and I think Ash is a nice nickname.


The only thing I don't like about it is that all the Ashers I have ever met (3) were girls, and I just don't like it as a girl's name.
