There is a common link between Tash and the various "pagan" deities which were worshipped in ancient Biblical times, such as Baal, Molech, Nisroch, and others.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Babylonia
Others again see in Nemrod an intentional corruption of Amarudu, the Akkadian for Marduk, whom the Babylonians worshiped as the great God, and who, perhaps, was the deified ancestor of their city.
This corruption would be parallel to Nisroch (2 Kings 19:37) for Assuraku, and Nibhaz (2 Kings 17:31) for Abahazu, or Abed Nego for Abdnebo.
Both Biblical instances, IV Kings, xvii, 31, and xix, 37, however, are very doubtful, and Nisroch has recently found a more probable explanation.

 The Ultimate Tash Dog Breeds Information Guide and Reference
In their Arabic style costumes there is some suggestion by Lewis that he is comparing sincere followers of Tash with devout Muslims.
Other commentators find more commonality between Tash and the various "pagan" deities which were worshipped in the ancient Middle East, such as Baal, Molech, Nisroch etc.
It should be noted that those Calormen who honored Tash as 'good,' upon their death, are counted as having honored Aslan; illustrating Lewis' belief that the idea being worshipped, and the honesty with which it is worshipped is more important than the name by which it is referred to.
