Not expecting or ttc just curious 
Which do you prefer?
What vibes do each give you?
Is one trendier than the other?
I’d love to know what y’all think!!
Thanks

i like oscar more! it feels sweet and bookish, like lavender pressed between the pages of a heavy book to dry
(i know an oscar who’s the opposite of that, though, so it works on all kinds of people!)
i mostly prefer it because i don’t love jasper’s nicknames, but i adore ozzie, and oscar feels a little more timeless! i wouldnt call jasper trendy in a bad way, but it’s certainly a trendy-feeling name. i still like it too though!

Definitely [name_u]Jasper[/name_u]! [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] to me is vibrant, witchy, has history but feels modern, quirky but in the best way, could fit any personality. I’ve never personally understood the appeal of [name_m]Oscar[/name_m].

[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] for me. Feels outdoorsy, strong but easy going. [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] is more urban, loud, and maybe a little grouchy

I prefer [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] more.
Yes, I think [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] is trendier - but not in a bad way. [name_m]Just[/name_m], [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] is more elegant, international, has more flair and personality, and has great namesakes for me. I would use [name_m]Oscar[/name_m]

[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] 
Not any specific reason, I just like it more than [name_m]Oscar[/name_m]

I quite like [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] but I looove [name_m]Oscar[/name_m]. I find [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] just a little bit of an odd sound and I don’t really connect the nature imagery with it that I could do. [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] sounds so friendly, cozy and wholesome to me! It probably helps enormously that all of the Oscars I looked after were sweethearts! (As a childcare worker, I looked after one [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] in my time, and many Oscars.)

Tough choice!!
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] is sleek, refined, red-orange-gold in vibe, cheerful but smart and tidy.
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] is warm, rugged, woodsy and charming - both poetic and studious but outdoorsy and rough-and-tumble too.
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] feels slightly more classic, but I think I’ve loved [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] for longer

I like both but slightly prefer [name_u]Jasper[/name_u]!

I prefer [name_u]Jasper[/name_u].
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] is sharp and feline and a sparkling green.
[name_m]Oscar[/name_m] is more rotund. A teddy bear name.
In the US, [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] is rising much faster than [name_m]Oscar[/name_m], but internationally, the inverse is true.

[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] is my favourite he’s charming, whimsical, bright and I love the meaning ‘bringer of treasure’ which just adds to the overall mysticism of the name. [name_u]Jasper[/name_u] really appeals to me and feels rarer in comparison to [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] a name I encounter on a daily basis (there are two Oscar’s at my daughter’s nursery) and doesn’t feel as trendy. [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] is lovely very classic, has the strong O sound which people really love (including me) and I love the nickname [name_u]Ozzy[/name_u]. I think [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] feels friendlier as well.
[name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps

[name_u]Love[/name_u] both, they’re both posh [name_u]Brit[/name_u] boys hitting each other with baguettes names to me! But more seriously, both very charismatic.
[name_u]Jasper[/name_u] is a little jauntier and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] a little more sturdy.

Since my LO only watches like 6 shows (one being SS) this is definitely a worry 
@heartwings since we are Latine, I love the idea of my child having people like [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_m]Romero[/name_m] and [name_m]Oscar[/name_m] [name_m]Isaac[/name_m] to look up to 
(and [name_u]Wilde[/name_u] too)
