Gaspar

Meaning of Gaspar

Gaspar dances off the tongue like a sun-warmed breeze through a bustling Latin mercado, carrying with it the ancient sparkle of Persia—its name rooted in “Kaspar,” the Chaldean word for “treasurer”—and the legend of one of the Magi who followed a guiding star bearing gifts. In Spanish it’s GAHS-pahr; in English, GAS-pahr, each pronunciation rolling out like warm cinnamon on the palate. Though it never floods the top 100, Gaspar has been steadily gaining ground—landing at rank 874 in 2024 with 50 little adventurers proudly wearing the name—and feels as rare and treasured as a family heirloom. Embracing Gaspar is like weaving a tapestry of history, generosity and Latin flair; it’s a persuasive invitation to gift your son a name that’s both deeply rooted and joyfully alive.
