Yasmin: meaning and origin
Yasmin means “jasmine” in Arabic and Hebrew, says Behind the Name, from the Persian yasamin. Wikipedia describes it as a feminine name of Persian origin, the Persian name for the jasmine plant, from which the English Jasmine also comes. Behind the Name adds that in modern times Yasmin has been used in the western world as an Arabic-influenced variant of Jasmine.
Nicknames and variants
Behind the Name links Yasmin with Yasmeen, Yasmina, Yasmine, Jasmine, Jasmin, Jessamine and the Persian Yasaman. Yas is an easy short form. Jasmine is the familiar English sister name.
