Hey everyone!
My favourite boy name is [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] (nickname, [name_m]Jack[/name_m])… lately however, I realized that it might be seen as sort of a British name like [name_m]Oliver[/name_m]. I used to picture [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] as more of a rugged, outdoorsmen type. What is your impression of [name_m]Jasper[/name_m]?
Thank you! 
To me [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] is quiet, calm, collected, a little mysterious. I’d imagine he’d be a big reader, knowledgable, very responsible and sensible. I don’t think he’s ‘hoity toity’ or pretentious, just a nice name.
I love the name [name_m]Jasper[/name_m], and I think one of the great things about it is that it is rather universal. I can picture so many different kind of [name_m]Jasper[/name_m]'s, and I think that’s awesome
Totally agree
Agree, see both the introvert and extrovert rocking this name. I wouldn’t worry about the posh association. Doesn’t stop us using names like [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f], [name_f]Cressida[/name_f] and [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u]!
The first association I have when I hear the name [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] is the spectacular [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] National [name_m]Park[/name_m] which is the largest in the Canadian [name_m]Rocky[/name_m] Mountains, and the town of [name_m]Jasper[/name_m]. The area is stunningly beautiful. Definitely outdoorsy and rugged.
I know a little Australian kiddo named [name_m]Jasper[/name_m], currently using the nickname [name_m]Jazzy[/name_m]. He’s a rough and tumble kid so far! I guess the only thing I’d add, though, is that [name_m]Jack[/name_m] doesn’t seem the right nickname to me. I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] the name [name_m]Jack[/name_m], so I’d skip [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] and go right to it if you plan on calling him that.
It’s always felt very Southern to me. I agree that it’s versatile, although I’ve always imagined it on an introverted, artsy sort.
I see [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] as country/outdoor instead of hoity toity.
On the one hand, I see [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] as being very British, yes. But on the other hand, I can see him following a very similar trajectory as [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] did. Sure, [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] did feel very British, but there are THOUSANDS of little Olivers running around the States now, so it no longer feels terribly British to me. That being said, [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] is a super cool name, and I’d love to meet one! (I actually have, but it was in passing, so I have no clue what the little one’s character was like.) I agree that [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] could suit a lot of different personalities. 
I don’t know whether most people would consider this a good or bad thing, but to me, [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] is the ultimate hipster name.
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m] doesn’t seem hoity-toity to me, I had a professor named [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] who hated being called “Mr.” I don’t even remember his last name. He was a very cool, down to earth writer, and American. I don’t think of it as “too British” but I don’t think of [name_m]Oliver[/name_m] as too British either.
I see [name_m]Jasper[/name_m] as a playful name that ages well. I don’t really see it as British, although others might. In my opinion, it doesn’t matter. [name_m]Plenty[/name_m] of people who aren’t British use posh and “British” sounding names. I don’t think [name_m]Britain[/name_m] is a bad association at all.
I’m in the UK.
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m] isn’t that common but definitely isn’t seen as ‘hoity toity’ like [name_m]Rupert[/name_m] is a bit over here x
[name_m]Jasper[/name_m] is kind of an anything name, it could be posh but there’s also an outdoorsy aspect, especially with [name_m]Jack[/name_m] as a nn.
