ITS A BOY! Caspar or Milo?

We have an Otis and can't decide between Caspar and Milo for his new brother-probably because we have always liked Milo whereas Caspar is a new choice for us.

Ghost v hot drink.

Ghost every time!

DS is called Caspar (I may or may not have been obsessed with Casper the friendly ghost) I think it's a wonderful name

Caspar. Especially at this time of year. The three wise men. Melchior, Balthazar and Caspar. Caspar reputedly brought the gold.

Caspar

Caspar.

Jabbathewhut · 10/12/2015 17:13

I doubt many people would make that connection anyway - just made me smile!

Caspar has always been a favourite of mine, I think Cas is a lovely nickname too.

Milo

SweepTheHalls · 10/12/2015 17:36

Caspar!

Milo

Congratulations by the way. I like both choices but think Otis and Milo are fab together.

Allalonenow · 10/12/2015 17:42

Caspar, just fab for a December baby!

I like Casper better, but spelled with an e. With an a it makes me want to say Caspaaaarrrr in a fake posh accent - just me?

Caspar

ClancyMoped · 10/12/2015 22:30

Casper (milo is too milky Wink )

Caspar by a country mile (no pun intended). Milo is too "now", too trendy. I think it will date quickly. I do love Miles though... More "substantial" if that makes sense. Both Miles and Caspar were on my list for DD2 although in the end we went with something else. I also had Felix and Ted (NOT Teddy) on my list.
