I like it. It's classy, and uncommon but not gratingly so.
I quite like Jasper as a girls' name *ducks under table*. Thinking of the gemstone, that is. I find it rather poncy on a boy ... I count it alongside Rufus, Lucian, Maximilian etc... names I find pretentious.

LOVE it! My very fave boy name. A lot of people think it's more of a dog or cat name, including everyone in my family who I've mentioned the name to, but I still adore it. I have noticed that a lot more people are talking about it though, which I'm not happy about, since I don't want it to get popular!
It reminds me of that old guy on The Simpsons. Also I know a dog with this name.
I think of Horace and Jasper, the henchmen of Cruella DeVil in 101 Dalmatians. I wouldn't use it based on that, plus I don't think it sounds particularly attractive.
There are cute Caspers (par example, Casper the Friendly Ghost and Casper Van Dien) but there's only a cartoon Jasper, and he's fat, ugly, and mean to puppies.

I love it. It started to grow on me shortly after I started posting here on BtN. I don't know that I'd ever have the guts to use it on a real child, though. It's a little too 'out there' for most, it seems. But I still love it. :)

I love it :-) It's old-fashioned, but I could really see it on a kid.
I like it a lot. I think it's a very nice name.

They will see us waving from such great heights,
'come down now,' they'll say
But everything looks perfect from far away,
'come down now,' but we'll stay...

I love that name! It's old fashioned in a retro kind of way!
I prefer Casper.I once met a charming young man{lol} who was named Casper but constantly spelted his name Kaspar.Unfortunately he was an old friend and I love the name now.
I don't care for it. I don't find it at all masculine toned, and it reminds me of Casper, which I don't like, as well.

It's the name of one of my brother-in-laws, and before he came I didn't really like it much. But I have gotten used to it over time, and now I like it a lot.
