Help[Opinions] Re: Ascham?
in reply to a message by jemis
If I had to hazard a guess at how to say it on first glance, I'd say "ah-SHAWM". I would also assume it was a Hebrew name. Is it? I mean I'm just curious. It has an alluring depth and smoothness to it, like Escher. Actually it totally puts me in mind of the famous "crazy stairs" print by Escher so that's apropos.

I'm not really sure about the origin of the name. I googled it because I couldn't find it on here, but I only got information on the scholar or links to Ancestry website.

Well it looks like it's English, derived from Askham, England. I honestly would not have guessed that! Interesting.
