A timeless classic. I picture a woman who is somehow both young and old, taking wary, curious steps into a warm tide that is ebbing in and out, staring with wonder at the unfathomably spacious world ahead of her... teal-tinted, even-numbered and impossible to dislike.

I love the meaning of this name! I feel that it would suit anyone from a small toddler to a greying elder. Asherah flows well as a name and isn't at all overused. I do prefer the name 'Ashira' but only by one syllable. I wouldn't name my child Asherah but I would suggest it to others.
My favourite combinations for Asherah:
Iris Asherah
Asherah Thomasin
Asherah Wilmot
Ivy Asherah
Evie Asherah
Caroline Asherah.

This is such a beautiful name; I'm blown away by it. I don't know how it'd be used, though. Character? A real person? I don't know, I just want to hear it more.

Whoever said that the pronunciation was uh-SHAYR-a or aw-SHAYR-a, is incorrect.
The correct pronunciation of this name is uh-SHEER-uh, with a long 'e' sound in the middle instead of a long 'a'.

The name Asherah meant "She who walks in the sea." It also is a goddess name so it probably is a goddess of the sea.
