What do you think of the name Asher

Me and DH are currently ttc our last baby, if we do and we have a boy we are thinking of using the name Asher, we already have a Jacob, Joseph, Isaac and Lily (twins), does this name go well with the other names and are there others that you can suggest?

Not my style, but I do like Ash.

CrashingCymbals · 13/07/2020 22:58

I love this name, but couldn't persuade my DH (and we had a girl anyway!). I think it goes well with the other names too

Tillygetsit · 13/07/2020 22:55

Love it but I'm a sucker for a biblical name.

Fuebomba0 · 13/07/2020 22:22

Don't like it. Bit too tacky video game-y

jullyg · 13/07/2020 22:05

I think if the kid who was kidnapped by his parents for proton therapy.

'Knock-knock'..

..'who's there'.. ?

'Asher'..

'Asher who'

'Asher your mum if you can come out' ?

Sorry :(

Love it

SoftBlocks · 13/07/2020 20:40

I really like it and Ash is a nice nickname.

VenusClapTrap · 13/07/2020 19:47

I like it, but with those other names it’s a bit themey (with the exception of Lily). I’d assume you are a big Old Testament fan.

finallychangedmyusername · 13/07/2020 19:28

Really lovely name and great with your other childrens' names

frocksmock · 13/07/2020 16:56

It's becoming popular in my area - several Ashers here

Alongcameacat · 13/07/2020 16:46

Brimful of Asha on the 45......,

Flymetothestars · 13/07/2020 16:44

Adore it and works well with other names

Good luck TTC

Shmithecat2 · 13/07/2020 16:44

I like it. A boy in my son's preschool is called Asher and he's an awesome kid.

timetest · 13/07/2020 16:43

Like it.

chillimartini · 13/07/2020 16:41

Really like it!

CaffiSaliMali · 13/07/2020 16:14

I like it and also like Asa which has a similar feel. It goes well with your other sons old testament names too.

ILoveStickers · 13/07/2020 15:42

Really like Asher.

sucha · 13/07/2020 15:29

Brimful

MikeUniformMike · 13/07/2020 15:28

I don't like Archer at all.
Asher is ok, but will be Ash.

Thistlegirl4 · 13/07/2020 15:24

Asher is a lovely name and works well with the other children's names.

ticktackted · 13/07/2020 15:12

I like it a lot, doesn't work with our surname or we'd be using it!

NeverHadANickname · 13/07/2020 15:03

I really like it. It was on our short list for a boy but didn't use it in the end.

Sorry, I meant name, not age.Confused
