Jasper or Milo?

Which one? We both like both but I sway more towards Jasper while OH sways more towards Milo.

We’ve spent the last 9 months going through pretty much every boy name on the planet and have boiled it down to these two 😂

Jasper.

SnowdropFox · 04/03/2022 15:32

Jasper by a mile for me. Well done for getting down to 2! Is there a mn to consider?

You might feel that one name suits them better then they arrive.

Rosemary2022 · 04/03/2022 15:35

I prefer Jasper

StopForAMinute · 04/03/2022 16:01

Jasper.

ALonelyGreyCouch · 04/03/2022 17:59

Jasper definitely. Milo just reminds me of the kids cartoon that my LB likes to watch in the morning. 😂

I would wait until he's born and see what he looks like.

SantaMonicaPier · 04/03/2022 18:03

Like them both but prefer Milo.

Devo1818 · 04/03/2022 18:05

100% Milo

AntsMarching · 04/03/2022 18:11

Nelliephant1 · 04/03/2022 18:12

No.

DotDotDotDotDot · 04/03/2022 18:22

Jasper is lovely.

Viviennemary · 04/03/2022 18:26

I'm not overkeen on either. But prefer Milo.

Luckingfovely · 04/03/2022 18:28

I love both!

FourChimneys · 04/03/2022 18:38

Jasper. Wasn't one of the Tweenies called Milo?

Roselilly36 · 04/03/2022 19:11

Both gorgeous names, I honestly can’t chose between them either.

Luredbyapomegranate · 04/03/2022 19:34

Milo

But probably because I knew a weedy Jasper

halfsiesonapotnoodle · 04/03/2022 19:38

Jasper.

Blubells · 04/03/2022 19:40

Milo is a chocolate drink

Joystir59 · 04/03/2022 19:42

Absolutely love Milo

SemperIdem · 04/03/2022 19:49

Jasper.

Miles nn Milo when little would be nice but I don’t like Milo as a given name for an adult. It sounds childish.

avocadotofu · 04/03/2022 19:50

I love both but if I had to choose I'd go for Jasper.

Trisolaris · 04/03/2022 19:53

Love Jasper

Newbeginnings90 · 04/03/2022 20:58

I know a family with a Jasper and a Milo and they are both cats.

AnnaSW1 · 04/03/2022 21:00

Milo. Jasper sounds so wet and weak to my ears.
