Meaning: 'treasurer'
Ooh I love this name so much. I think a little boy called Casper would adorable. I can't imagine it so much on a grown man but it's not that different to Jasper so I think I'd get used to it.
My husband has banned us from using this name because he still associates it with Casper the Friendly Ghost. I personally don't think that should put people off as the connection isn't very strong anymore - the film was out a looong time ago now.
It would also make a good Christmassy name if you had a baby around this time of year, as Casper was supposed to be one of the three wise men who visited Jesus in Bethlehem. I like connections like this which aren't as obviously Christmas-related as Holly or Noël.
If the ghost connection is too strong for you but you like the sound of the name, then how about Caspian? Alas, this has also been banned by my hubby but maybe you are more adventurous than he is :)
