We have been pretty set on [name_m]Caspar[/name_m] [name_m]John[/name_m] (family mn) for a bit now but I wanted one last round of opinions! [name_m]How[/name_m] do you feel about [name_m]Caspar[/name_m]? The ghost association doesn’t bother me though I am prepared for the comments. [name_u]Love[/name_u] it? Hate it?
Also, spelling… I prefer the look of [name_m]Caspar[/name_m] but think most people would intuitively spell it [name_m]Casper[/name_m]. Is this going to be a nuisance for him and therefore not worth the less common spelling? [name_f]Do[/name_f] you pronounce the two differently?
I love [name_m]Caspar[/name_m]! I have only ever seen it spelled as [name_m]Caspar[/name_m]. As a person with an alternative spelling of a name, yes you may have to correct people but it’s not a terrible burden. I also I think [name_m]Caspar[/name_m] the ghost is pretty old now, not sure if any kids would know it. I would associate [name_m]Caspar[/name_m] with the three wise men!
I used to really dislike [name_m]Caspar[/name_m]/[name_m]Casper[/name_m] but lately it’s really been growing on me! Personally, I prefer the spelling [name_m]Casper[/name_m] only because when I see “[name_m]Caspar[/name_m]” I want to really emphasize the “[name_m]PAR[/name_m]”…not sure why, though!!
