Iasmina

Girl name · 3 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Iasmina: 3 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 3 births in 2025.

Iasmina, a name of Persian origin, is the Romanian form of Yasmin, itself derived from the Persian word *yasamin*, meaning “jasmine” flower. In Scotland, it has been a quiet but consistent choice since the late 20th century, its lyrical sound lending it a soft, international appeal. While it lacks widely known historical bearers, the name shares its floral root with the fragrant jasmine plant, which has been cultivated for centuries across Asia and the Middle East for its scent and symbolic purity. A notable variant is the more common English form Jasmine, which rose to popularity in the 1990s partly due to Princess Jasmine from Disney’s *Aladdin*. Iasmina offers a distinctive, elegant twist on a familiar bloom, carrying the same sweetness with a touch of Eastern European flair.
