I love the name Jasper, but can’t have due to close family member. Looking for a soft sweet similar name for my little boy. Any suggestions? Thanks ☺️

Malachi (close to malachite, also a kind of stone).

I'd put these all into just a little bit posh but still mainstream category.

@joyfuljojoi knew a toddler Oscar who then had a baby brother called Jasper and I always felt they’d gone for the same name again, just not as good. It’s weird as you say they’re not really that similar!

I always think Jasper and Felix have similar vibes.

Or how about Elliot or Rupert?

For some reason I always get the names Jasper and Oscar muddled. No idea why, not like they look or sound particularly similar. Just very much the same feel to them imo.
