How many Ashers do you know in real life?

Zero. Well, I knew someone who goes by "Ash" but I think his full name is Ashley. So, none. I hear of the name much more on the internet than I do in "real life".

I'm just so worried about it becoming the next Aiden. I only know of one Asher at the moment, but it seems to be teetering on the edge of super popularity. Boys names are so hard.

I know one boy Asher (2) and four girl Asha's (7, 4, 2 and 0)

There's an Australian actress named Asher Keddie. I don't know any Asher's personally.

Just one! I love Asher but close friends used it about a year ago. I'm hoping a few years later I can use Archer. I'm in the Midwest US.

In New Jersey, I know exactly one Asher -- he's maybe 15 years old?

I remember thinking the name odd when I first heard it, but apparently his mom was just ahead of the curve.

I think it's a long way from Jayden/Aiden status in the states, at least so far.

I do not know any Ashers in real life, but recently discovered the name and am considering it as well. I was concerned about the potential rise in popularity, too. I have read on two different baby name sites that it is the "hot" name to expect a rise in usage, but it's so hard to know.

Good luck!

I have never met an Asher!

I know one 14-year-old Asher. Since I know a lot of people who choose Biblical names, it might be more popular in my circles than in the mainstream.

I've only ever met one little boy named Asher. He's about 1 1/2 years old, and the most adorable, happy little guy ever! Love the name Asher!
