I'm in hospital having been induced and seem to have ruled out all our possible boys names. I mentioned Jasper yesterday as a new suggestion which DH instantly liked.
1 syllable surname, brother is Jonny

Really like it. Ds2 I wanted to call Jasper but dh wouldn't let me.

The OP asked what people thought of Jasper. I think it makes me think of rabbits and I explained why. That's why I mentioned a random animal ha ha. Doesn't mean I don't like the name ...

I know 2 Jaspers, both adults. I love it.

Lemondrop99 · 12/06/2017 19:42

I like it

I've heard it quite a lot lately, two of of friends have baby/ toddler Jaspers and there is one at my sons school. I don't love it but can't pinpoint why.

ElleMcElle · 13/06/2017 19:06

I've been suggesting Jasper! My husband isn't keen - but I love it!

GreenTulips · 13/06/2017 19:09

Isn't Jasper a ghost?

disneykid · 13/06/2017 19:16

@GreenTulips I think that's Caspar - which is just as bad 😂

GreenTulips · 13/06/2017 19:22

Yes that's right! He was a nice ghost!!

scrivette · 13/06/2017 19:23

It's a great name.

Ecclesiastes · 13/06/2017 19:25

Superb name. One of the coolest.

Farfromtheusual · 13/06/2017 19:29

Love it! Would probably use it if it didn't rhyme with DPs surname Grin

sexcauldron · 13/06/2017 19:29

Jasper is the beardy old man off the Simpsons....sorry but I can't hear the name without thinking of him

Justkeepleft · 13/06/2017 19:33

Love it. Mine is 9. I first heard the name as the dutch pronunciation (j= our y) and fell in love with it so we use that. It is one of the reasons I married my dutch DH😉

ilovepixie · 13/06/2017 19:35

I like it. And jasper and Jonny go well together.

DijonVu · 13/06/2017 19:41

I loved it so much I named my cat Jasper! But then again there are loads of animals called human names, so if you like it use it Smile

chocolateshortcake · 14/06/2017 00:53

I have a Jasper. I love the name. He's super cool. We have only ever had positive comments about his name (not that I care what anyone else thinks but there you go)
