Chasper
Origin:Swiss
Meaning:Treasure-bearer; Wise man
"When your little blessing arrives, why not mark the occasion with the heavenly moniker Chasper? This masculine name is of Swiss, Aramaic, and Persian origin. A Romansh variant of the more popular Caspar, it means ""treasure-bearer"" or ""wise man."" In the Christian faith, Chasper harkens back to Saint Caspar, one of the Three Wise Men present at the birth of Jesus. Caspar's chosen gift to Jesus was frankincense, a sweet-smelling oil used during religious ceremonies. While saintly names like this were rare in Switzerland following the Protestant Reformation, they're definitely heading for a revival! Your wise little owl will be a trendsetter and treat each day like a gift."
