What is the meaning of the name Aase ?

The baby name Aase is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈoːsə/ (approx. OH-suh).

Aase is Norwegian in Origin.

Aase is a Scandinavian feminine given name found chiefly in Norway and Denmark. It represents the older/alternative spelling of Åse, derived from Old Norse Ása, built on the element Áss “(a) god,” referring to the Æsir; hence it carries the sense “goddess; from the gods.” The spelling Aase persisted before the adoption of the letter Å in Norwegian (1917) and Danish (1948), and remains in use as a traditional form and in diaspora contexts.

The name saw broad use in the early to mid‑20th century, with notable bearers such as Norwegian soprano Aase Nordmo Løvberg and politician Aase Lionæs; in Sweden the cognate Åsa rose strongly in the 1960s–70s. Variants and related forms include Åse (Norwegian/Danish standard), Åsa (Swedish), Ása (Icelandic), and the simplified Asa when Å is unavailable - distinct from the separate Hebrew male name Asa.
