Joash was a King of Judah who was hidden until he turned 8 and then crowned King. He was righteous in the sight of God and returned the people of Judah to the worship of Yaweh, the one true God.

My best friend was named Joseph Asher, so he changed it when he was 12 (I think) to Joash, and I believe that it is a cool name.

Found this name in my Bible study. Talked it over with my wife, & decided to name our 2nd son this. He was 2 lbs. 11 ounces at birth. Spent 2 months in nicu. Today he is 21 yrs old and owns his own business. My Bible says the name means "who Jehovah supports." Fits him perfectly.

One of my best friends is named Joash. Personally, I think it should be more popular.

In Hebrew the pronunciation is: Yoh-AHSH.

I read that Joash means "Jehovah fired" or "Jehovah hastened" in Strong's Concordance. Joash seems similar to Josh and Asher, so I could see it being used more.

I LOVE this name! I hope it will make a comeback. It's a fresh twist on the popular name Josh/Joshua. I would name my son this, and honor my brother, who's name is Joshua (he goes by Josh, though).
