Jasper
Persian, "bringer of treasure"
December 25 is Christmas day, and Christmas name Jasper denotes one of the Three Wise Men who brought gifts to the infant Christ. On Nameberry’s list of old-fashioned baby names, Jasper actually reached its peak on the US Boys Top 1000 in 2023 and was one of Nameberry’s top boy names of the 2010s. A boy name that starts with J similar to stalwarts like Jacob and like James, Jasper was used for character Jasper Whitlock in Twilight.




Jasper is not a Persian name meaning "bringer of treasure," it is an English name (Hebrew in origin, ultimately from Old Persian, though still not a Persian) meaning "treasurer," a person who manages finances.
