Dylan but only because I really don’t like Jasper

BoleynMemories13 · 29/12/2025 12:38

I prefer Dylan.

Jasper isn't to my taste at all.

SkaneTos · 28/12/2025 21:41

They are both good names!
I voted for Jasper.

Dylan is the hippy rabbit off The Magic Roundabout.

This ages me, doesn't it?

TomatoSandwiches · 28/12/2025 13:14

One is my sons name but both are decent.

I like both
but I’m welsh and 90% of people won’t say Dylan correctly. It should be DULL-ann

Agree.

FollowSpot · 28/12/2025 12:26

Both good.

Lilithgolightly · 28/12/2025 12:22

Dylan is the name I like the best of the two, won't go into why I prefer it, but Dylan gets my vote!

Matildahoney · 27/12/2025 22:57

I hate Dylan, especially when poorly shorten it to Dyl, it sounds awful!

paddleboardingmum · 27/12/2025 22:36

Jasper is nicer

Rocknrollstar · 27/12/2025 22:17

Dylan. Jasper Is the dog in Rebecca

DramaAlpaca · 27/12/2025 22:13

I like both, but would probably pick Jasper out of the two.

HugoYorway · 27/12/2025 15:20

I know lots of Dylans too. Either middle-aged Welshmen or little tearaways.

ICanStillSayIDontRemember · 27/12/2025 14:51

I know a thousand kids called Dylan but only ever known one Jasper who is 7 or 8 and just the sweetest boy so 100% Jasper.

agirlandherdog1234 · 27/12/2025 14:46

Jasper 😍

canklesmctacotits · 27/12/2025 13:17

Dylan is a bit school shooter to me 😬. Jasper by far.

nameobsessed · 27/12/2025 12:45

Jasper is lovely! Dylan is a bit overused in my area.

AllPlayedOut · 27/12/2025 12:44

Jasper by far.

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 27/12/2025 12:43

Dylan is lovely, Jasper is not.

SnowFrogJelly · 27/12/2025 12:17

Dylan

101Alsatians · 27/12/2025 12:17

Jasper for me but no strong objection to Dylan

HugoYorway · 27/12/2025 12:15

Dylan is awful. Jasper's ok.

Heyhelga · 27/12/2025 12:13

Dylan.

Jasper 😍
