What is the meaning of the name Yasmine ?

The baby name Yasmine is a Female name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced YAZ-meen (IPA: /ˈjæzmiːn/).

Yasmine is French, Persian, Turkish in Origin.

Yasmine is the Arabic and Francophone form of a name ultimately from Persian yasamin, meaning "jasmine flower." Through Arabic it passed into medieval French as jasmin, giving English Jasmine; Yasmine retains the Near Eastern spelling while aligning with French orthography. The flower's associations of sweet fragrance, elegance, and affectionate love inform the name's gentle connotations across cultures.

Documented throughout the Middle East and North Africa since the Islamic Golden Age, Yasmine spread widely with Arabic and Persian influence, and today is common in Maghrebi and diaspora communities, as well as in France, the UK, and Canada. Usage in the West rose in the late 20th century alongside Jasmine, helped by public figures such as model Yasmin Le Bon and actress Yasmine Bleeth. International variants include Yasmin, Yasmeen, Yasmina, Yasemin (Turkish), Yasmín (Spanish), Jasmin/Jasmine, and the older English Jessamine.
