I love Jasper, but I don't know that I would ever use it. At the moment, it seems like one of those old-fashioned-trendy names (which I love, btw!) but that might seem outdated fairly soon, and too "out there" for most anyway. I know that if I named my son Jasper, my friends and family would think I was nuts. :b

---

Out of your combos, I like Jasper Elias, Jasper Lachlan, and Jasper Lorcan best. I also like the mn's on their own as well.
Other combos I like are:
Jasper Emmett
Jasper Finlay
Jasper Heath
Jasper Gideon
Jasper Rowan
Jasper Quinn

So weird that I am hearing this name more and more. I hope it never becomes too popular, because my husband and I are naming our son Jasper, due in May. We are using Jasper West, West being my husband's middle name. Plus, I just think it sounds cool.
On your list, I like Jasper Orion the best. Jasper Ryan works, too.

Well Jasper is my fave boy name and I'm sad that more ppl are starting to like it! I love the combos Jasper Isaac and Jasper Seth. Jasper Seth is one of my absolute faves. I also like Jasper Benjamin, Jasper Charlie, Jasper David, Jasper Fred and Jasper Ryan.

I like it but it's not really my style.

---

I like Jasper Owen and Jasper Lorcan the best.

"I dare you to make less sense."

We have similar tastes!! :) I love Jasper! And individually I love Lachlan, Lorcan, and Larkin. My fave mn for Jasper tho would have to be Jasper Orian. It fits :)

One of my favorite boy names right now. Unfortunately, it really doesn't work with our last name, that starts with Per.

---

The sp in the middle of the name gives it a softness that I think benefits more from a harder sounding mn. I'd definitely stay away from Elias or Seth or Isaac (just saying Jasper Seth makes me feel like I have lisp).

---

Not a big fan of Lachlan or Lorcan, but they sound good with Jasper. I think other J names could work well too, but I like alliteration between first and middle names.

I love Jasper :-) and think it will age just fine.
My favorite combos of yours are:
Jasper Elias
Jasper Orion
Jasper Owen

---

Jasper is also on my list, so here are my combos (all mn's are for family and such, so they may not be what you're looking for):
Jasper Michael
Jasper Scott
Jasper Eric
Jasper William
Jasper Paul
Jasper Edward
Jasper Anthony
Jasper Ross

Jasper Owen then Jasper Isaac

---

I like both, but J. Owen a little more. Maybe because I like Owen more than Isacc, or it could just be the sound of the combos. I dont know.

---

Jasper is a great name I think. Certainly making a come back. I can see it on a baby, toddler, kid, teenager, adult and older adult...in short, yes, it ages well.

I love this name and am very happy to see it becoming more popular. The mns that I like with it are:

---

Jasper Elias
Jasper Owen
Jasper Lachlan

Jasper is okay. I don't think it's horrible but I don't get too excited about it either. I think it would age fine. I like Jasper Elias and Jasper Lachlan best.

I like it. Most people don't seem to like it much though. I like...
Jasper Elias
Jasper Owen

---

Jasper Isaac
Jasper Lachlan
Jasper Larkin* - like best
Jasper Lorcan

---

.. are all good combos. (I don't care for O as a middle initial, and Jasper Seth or Elias sounds a bit lispy to me.)

---

I think Jasper is okay. I would sort of expect him to come from a rural or small-town family, if you're in the US; if I think of it in literary terms it could be snooty sounding. But on a real, average guy I think it's perfectly fine, truthfully.

---

I think it would age fine. I have no problem picturing it on a boy or man of any age.

---

Personally I prefer Caspar by quite a margin, though.

---

I like Jasper Owen and Jasper Seth

I like it quite a bit. From your list, Jasper Elias and Jasper Owen are my favorites.

When I was younger I heard (or read - can't remember!) the name Jasper somewhere and instantly thought of it as a female name (like most, if not all, gemstones) and when I came to this site a year ago and found out it was masculine it surprised me. So then I slowly started liking it for a boy and came up with the combos Jasper William and Jasper Henry. But now I think I'm going back to my original preference for it as a girls name.
Out of your combos I like Jasper Lachlan and Jasper Owen.

Jasper nms. I think people would think it's 'cute' on a little boy. But if they grow to be a macho teenager it's a bit girly. In my opinion I don't think it would really age well.

---

Of the combo's I like Jasper Lachlan best.

---

Other ideas along those lines maybe:
Jasper Christian
Jasper Linden
Jasper Glenn
Jasper Elijah
Jasper Stephen
Jasper Tobias
Jasper Phoenix

My beautiful little exclamation marks !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Visit my profile for their names.

I only like Jasper, after the gem, for a girl. On a boy it is one of the upper-class trendy names (think Oscar, Angus) that I don't care for.

I really like Jasper and went through a phase of considering using it. I think Jasper Elias and Jasper Lachlan sound really good.
