Gaspar

Gaspar is a Latin name mostly given to boys. It has Persian roots where the meaning of Gaspar is 'treasure', 'treasurer', 'treasure-bearer', or 'holder of the treasury' (from the Persian word 'ganzabara'). The name is most likely cognate to the Aramaic name Casper (which can be varied as Caspar, Gaspar or Kaspar) and has been found in French, German, Portuguese, and Spanish cultures as both a given name and a surname. Perhaps, one very familiar use of the word is about it being the name of one of the three kings or wise men (Magis) said to have visited Jesus during his birth, as mentioned in the biblical Gospel accounts. Gaspar (or Caspar), alongside the other two 'Biblical Magi', identified as Melchior and Balthasar, have been considered saints in the Catholic Church. One notable person who bears this name is Gaspar Yanga, famed as a National Hero Of Mexico for his successful resistance to Spanish colonial rule.
