Hesper

Hesper is a name that traces its roots back to Greek mythology, where it refers to the evening star. It's a rarity in modern times but carries a poetic and celestial charm. The name evokes a sense of twilight tranquility and has been used in literature to imbue characters with an ethereal quality. Despite its beauty, Hesper has never gained significant popularity, making it a unique choice for parents seeking something distinctive. Common nicknames are few, but 'Hess' might appeal to those wanting a shorter form.
