WTAF is this bollocks?

Anyway OP Asher makes me think of 90s hottie Ashton Kutcher for some reason.

Archer sounds like “and lemonade” 🤭

Well, if you take the origin to be Hebrew, and not a derivative of Ashley

Show quote history

I was thinking of the biblical origin. It's not a derivative of Ashley.

I think Asher is better but quite like both. You've also got to think of the shortened versions as it's inevitable they'll get shortened. Ash OR Arch.. which do u prefer? 🤷🏼‍♀️

Definitely Asher.

An Archer is someone using an 🏹!

I know what an archer is 😂

Asher. Looks and sounds better. Has a nicer meaning too.
