A given name of Persian origin, also historically used as one of the names of the three Magi (wise men) in Christian tradition.
From Persian 'Ganzbar' or Hebrew roots meaning 'treasure master' or 'master of the treasure.' In Christian tradition, it's applied to one of the three wise men who visited Jesus, alongside Melchior and Balthasar.
The names of the Magi aren't actually in the Bible—they were added later by Christian tradition, and Gaspar/Caspar is one version (other traditions call him Caspar, Gaspar, or Balthazar), showing how stories evolve across cultures and time!
