Aspren or Asprenas () was a 1st-century Christian saint and venerated as the first Bishop of Naples.

==Life== Aspren lived at the end of the 1st century and in the early 2nd century, as confirmed by archaeological studies regarding the early Neapolitan Church as well as the fact that "Aspren" was a common name during the days of the Roman Republic and the early years of the Roman Empire and afterwards fell into disuse.
