Asher: Boys Baby Name Meaning

Asher Baby Name

The name Asher means ‘happy’.

Asher is an early Biblical name in Genesis 30:13. Asher comes from the Hebrew word meaning ‘happy’.

In the bible, Jacob’s wife Leah is past childbearing years, so she takes her servant to Jacob. This servant (Zilpah) gives Jacob two sons, Gad and Asher.

Upon the birth of the second, Leah exclaims: ‘Happy am I! For women have called me happy’. So she called the son name Asher.

Asher may be a variation of the surname Ashton from the Old English ‘æsc’ (ash tree) signifying a person who lived near an ash tree.

In Norse mythology, the first man created by the gods was formed from an ash tree.

The Celts, impressed with its massive size, associated the ash Asher with power, expansion and scale.

Famous people who share the name Asher:

Asher Allen (football player); Asher Roth (rapper); Asher Benjamin (American architect); Asher Brown Durand (American painter).
