Family name origins & meanings

  • English : variant of Ash; the name arose as the result of misdivision of Middle English atter ashe ‘at the ash tree’ (Old English æt þǣre æsce).
  • Jewish : of uncertain origin; the Guggenheimers consider it to be a variant of Rasch 1.
  • Americanized spelling of German and Jewish Rasch.
