“A treasure of a name with Persian and royal roots”

Origin & Etymology

Caspen is a variant of Casper, which derives from the Persian name Jasper (گزپار, Gaspar). The name means 'treasurer' or 'keeper of the treasure' from the Old Persian 'ganzabara'. Caspar (also spelled Gaspar, Jasper, or Kaspar) is one of the traditional names given to the Three Wise Men (Magi) in Western Christian tradition, though these names don't appear in the Bible itself.

Popularity Story

Casper/Jasper has been quietly rising in popularity in the UK and Australia as part of the vintage name revival. The variant Caspen adds a fresher twist. Parents often choose it for its whimsical sound — simultaneously quirky and classic.

Cultural Significance

In European Christian tradition, Caspar is one of the Three Kings who visited the infant Jesus. He is traditionally associated with myrrh and depicted as a young man. The name has medieval roots across Germany, the Netherlands, and Scandinavia.
