I don't think he was given one in the movies, but one of the videogames starts in a mental ward, and they have Ash on file as Ashley Williams. Don't know if that's official, but it's Bruce Campbell playing the role, so I buy it.

I am deeply ashamed of myself for not thinking of that.

])

Man, that's far and away one of my all-time favorite movies.
Oh and how about MAX PAYNE or BULLET TOOTH TONY.
