Really want a lovely middle name for Casper, something feminine, vintage, pretty etc.
Many thanks in advance and happy new year Smile

ActuallyI'mAGirlYesIKnow, save her a lifetime of hassle.

Given that the two most famous Casper's are commonly thought of as male maybe it'd be kinder to rethink Casper as your first choice rather than saddling your daughter with explaining she is neither a friendly ghost nor one of the three magi wise men to bestow gifts on Jesus....

I honestly cannot think of a middle name that would work well for a girl Casper sorry.

Come on now, you can't call a girl Casper!

Mum2jenny · 01/01/2019 00:34

Please don't call a baby girl Casper, it's not kind.

No.

Casper is a boy's name.
Also look it up on the urban dictionary, the first entry is interesting.

Lovemusic33 · 01/01/2019 00:35

Sorry but Casper is the name of a ghoast or a dog?

If you do go with carsper please pick a nice middle name so she can use this as her first name when she gets the kiss taken out of her for being named after a friendly ghoast.

Fridgedooropen · 01/01/2019 00:36

Please don't saddle her with a name everyone will assume belongs to a boy. Cassie would be much kinder. If you like the 'sp' sound there's Vesper.

HeartsTrumpDiamonds · 01/01/2019 00:39

Vesper like the scooter? No wait that’s Vespa.

Not keen on Casper for either sex.

Joinourclub · 01/01/2019 00:40

What about Caspera or Casperina? Ridiculous, but less ridiculous than Casper for a girl.

I think OP's just having a GrinGrinGrin

Lovemusic33 · 01/01/2019 00:42

If she turns out to be a goth it would be a pretty cool name?

I often wonder how many trolls lurk on baby names???

How about Casperine, Caspia or Cassia instead?

shpoot · 01/01/2019 01:10

Casperine? Wtf

NewName54321 · 01/01/2019 01:20

If you want a truly unisex name with similar sounds, go for Ashley (other spelling variants are available).

If you're fixed on Casper, then either hyphenate to make it clear she's a girl, e.g. Casper-Louise, or just go for Cassie (or Cassandra nn Cassie), as that's the name she'll most probably end up with anyway.

The only female Casper I ever met was a deathly pale goth - hence the nickname! IIRC her real name was Wendy 😁

Bababoo13 · 01/01/2019 01:35

i need to shoes you beat me to it 😂
