Ashley Williams (Evil Dead)
The Ashleys (Recess)
Ashley Banks (Fresh Prince of Bel-Air)
Ashley Graham (Resident Evil 4)

Ashley Graham (Resident Evil 4)
Ashley (Warioware)
Ashley Armbruster (Recess)
Ashley Marin (Pretty Little Liars)

Very good chance I am forgetting something, I had to think here.

Oh yeah, we already have one.

Remove: Ashley (Warioware)
Add: Ashley Banks (Fresh Prince of Bel-Air)

Just wondering, would Ash Ketchum not count? I don't think it's ever been established that his name is short for Ashley, but it's a reasonable assumption.

Ask Ashley (All That)
Ashley Graham (Resident Evil)
Ashley (WarioWare)
Ashley Banks (Fresh Prince)

Ashley Williams (Evil Dead)
Ashley Graham (Resident Evil)
Ashley (WarioWare)
Ashley Banks (Fresh Prince)

Let's go with this.

Ashley "Ash" Williams
Ashley Graham
Ashley Spinelli (Recess)

I dunno about the last one. I'm gonna do some soul searching and make a decision later if I feel up to it.

Ash Williams (Evil Dead)
Ashley (All That)
Ashley Graham (Resident Evil 4)
Ashley Spinelli (Recess)

Not sure if the Ashley from All Thats Ask Ashley has a last name so I just left it at that.

Ashley Graham (Resident Evil)
Ashley (WarioWare)

I don't know any other
Best Ashley is Ashley Barrett but she is not fictional so... (actually there is a fictional Ashley Barrett from The Boys, but fuck her and fuck her hair)

Ashley Graham (Resident Evil 4)
Ashley (Warioware)
Ashley (Pokemon anime)
Ashley Freund (Final Destination 3)

I would count Ash Ketchum.

That said, there isnt anything explicit about Ash Ketchum being short for Ashley like there is for Ash Williams.

Ashley A. (Recess)
Ashley B. (Recess)
Ashley Q. (Recess)
Ashley T. (Recess)

The 4 belong together

Ashley Graham (Resident Evil 4)
Ashley (Warioware)
Ashley Williams (Evil Dead)
Ashley Banks (Fresh Prince)

Ashley (Warioware)

Ash Ketchum being declared legal does change things. Wondering if it's worth ditching Warioware Ashley for him now.

(This isn't an official swap/change btw)

Ashley Williams (Evil Dead)

Ashley Graham (Resident Evil 4)

Drop: Ashley Graham
Add: Ash Ketchum

Ash Ketchum is iconic enough for Rushmore, but he's not explicitly an Ashley?

Ash Ketchum

(For now)
(I'll change this later if someone can come up with a better Ashley I'd care about enough to carve on a mountain face)

Drop: Ashley Graham
Add: Ash Ketchum

Does he count? Is his name confirmed as Ashley? If anything I think we have evidence that it isnt because Jessie facetiously referred to him as Ashley when they dressed him up as a girl. I always assumed it was just Ash, or maybe Ashton.

anyway,

Evil Dead
WarioWare
All-That
Fresh Prince

I mean Bitto just said he would count him and there aren't a lot of good candidates for this one

I don't think many people think of Ash Ketchum when they hear the name Ashley. He doesn't deserve to be on here.

I'll go with this one

I thought Ash from pokemon was short for Asher.

Asher Ketchum- "I sure catch them"

The only one I even know is Ash from Evil dead is short for Ashley, so

Ashley Williams (Evil Dead)

Ashley (WarioWare)
Ashley Graham (Resident Evil 4)
Ashley Riot (Vagrant Story)
Ashley Williams (Evil Dead)

Ashley (WarioWare)
Ash(ley) Williams (Evil Dead)
Ashley Spinelli (Recess)

I never thought about it at this length but I love this.

Ashley Spinelli (Recess)
Ashley J. Williams (Evil Dead)
Smooth Sailin' Ashley Remington (Chikara)
Ash Ketchum (Pokemon)

Ashley (Warioware)
Ashley Williams (Evil Dead)

Ash Williams (The Evil Dead)
Ash Williams (Evil Dead II)
Ash Williams (Army of Darkness)
Ash Williams (Ash vs Evil Dead)

I feel like there aren't enough big named Fictional Ashley's to warrant a "Fictional Ashley Mt. Rushmore'

Ashley J Williams
Ashley (WarioWare)

Ash Williams (The Evil Dead)
Ashley Graham (Resident Evil 4)
Ashley Wilkes (Gone with the Wind)
Ashley Banks (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air)

Ash Williams (Evil Dead)
Ashley Spinelli (Recess)
Ashley Riot (Vagrant Story)
Ashley (WarioWare)

Ashley Spinelli (Recess)

Okay finally a contender appeared!

Drop: Ash(not -ley) Ketchum
Add: Ashley Riot (Vagrant Story)

So my final submission is as follows:

Ashley "Ash" Williams
Ashley Graham
Ashley Spinelli
Ashley Riot

The Ashleys (Recess)
Ashley Graham (Resident Evil 4)

Ashley (Warioware)

You know this is a rough category when you feel like you've struck gold with Ashley Riot and one of the best options is a dude whose name may not actually be Ashley

Or a group of girls most distinguished by the fact that they're an indistinguishable group of girls!!

Social Security says Ashley is the 2nd most popular girl name of the 1990s and the 10th most popular girl name of the 2000s. Weirdly, it doesnt even seem to be in the top 200 for the 2010s.

Guess it doesnt translate to pop culture well!

Also I would assume most of these Ashley Williams votes are for the Evil Dead, but if you didn't clarify, you probably should since the Mass Effect character is also Ashley Williams

Realistically we would be better served letting this mountain face be a mountain. Maybe we could give this one a sand castle or something.

I'm actually kinda okay with the vote that's just Ash Williams four times because I think he's the only unquestionably worthy entry here

Ashley Wilkes is a central figure in the adjusted highest grossing film of all time, I think he deserves a spot here too.

Ashelia B'nargin Dalmasca

If only

Ive met hundreds of Ashleys in my life. But not one fictional one Im seeing through research really belongs. Whoever nommed this topic did a poor job.

Nom breakfast foods.
