(English) One who lived near the ash tree.

Dictionary of American Family Names (1956) by Elsdon Coles Smith

There are places so called in Derbyshire, Surrey, Hampshire, and elsewhere. It seems probable, however, that the name was sometimes adopted from residence near a remarkable ash tree. We find the Atten-Ashe of the XIV. cent. contracted into Nashe soon after. In the H.R. it is latinized ad Fraxinam and de Fraxitno. The French Dufresne is its synonym.
