Thinking about the name
Kasper

“A Dutch and Scandinavian form of Casper, meaning 'treasurer' or associated with the Magi of Christian tradition, Kasper is borne by Northern European heritage with straightforward, approachable strength. The name carries understated sophistication without formality. It feels both timelessly classic and distinctly European.”
