About the name Jasmin

Jasmin is a rare case where a Gujarati name lands identically on English ears, which made life easy for a generation of migrants. Indian families usually intend the mogra or chameli of temple garlands rather than the Disney princess, though children abroad get asked about both.

Jasmin is a girl name of Gujarati origin, pronounced JAAS-min. On the NameRarity scale it scores 76 out of 100, which places it in the very rare band — a genuinely uncommon pick — most people have never met anyone with this name. Its strongest period was the 1990s.
