Name Meaning
English (of Norman origin): from the personal name Asti, a shortened form of Astin, a pet form of Asketin, derived from Old Norse Ásketill, composed of the elements áss ‘god’ + ketill ‘sacrificial cauldron, helmet’. Compare Haskell and Astin .
English: possibly a habitational name from Ashday in Southowram (Yorkshire). The placename may derive from Old English ēast ‘eastern, east’ + (ge)hæg ‘enclosure’ or hēah ‘high place’.
Scottish: nickname for a brisk or impetuous person, or possibly for a messenger, from Older Scots hastie, Middle English hasty, hastif ‘speedy, quick’, also ‘impetuous, hot-tempered’ (Old French hastif).
