I have grapheme color synesthesia. When a name has prominent letters, it makes the whole name that color, though many have secondary colors where there are prominent letters. James is a very red name, for example, because both the letters J and M are red. Vowels are often not picked up for me unless they begin the word. Nathalie is mostly pale orange but the h creates a secondary hue of navy blue, which adds to the reason that I prefer the spelling Nathalie. Jasper is an interesting case because each letter has such a distinct color that it makes it the most colorful name for me. I can think of no other name that has so many colors.
