A proper name, traditionally a masculine given name meaning 'blessed' or 'happy,' and also one of the twelve tribes of Israel in religious texts.
From Hebrew 'Asher' meaning 'blessed' or 'fortunate.' In the Bible, Asher is the eighth son of Jacob and founder of one of the twelve tribes of Israel.
The name Asher has experienced a huge modern resurgence in popularity—it jumped from obscurity to the top 10 boys' names in the United States, partly because it sounds modern while maintaining ancient heritage.
