Yasemin
Yasemin is a familiar floral name with Persian roots, named after the sweet-scented jasmine flower.
Meaning
Yasemin means jasmine, the flower known for its lovely fragrance. As a given name, it carries a direct connection to the flower.
Origin
The name comes from the Persian word yasaman, used for the jasmine flower. Yasemin is the established Turkish form, with related forms widely used as feminine names across many languages.
In recent years
Long among the most chosen names, Yasemin appeared in earlier top-hundred lists thirty-four times and reached ninth place at its peak. It is absent from the latest official top hundred but remains a classic that parents recognise from earlier generations.
How does it look on a plaque?
