Where this word comes from

First attested with certainty as amspen in 1302. Etymology uncertain. Perhaps derived from Proto-Germanic *Amsanô (a hydronym) with -n- suffix. The element heem (“home, settlement”) is not evident from older forms of the toponym and etymologies built around it must be rejected.
