Girl name · 39 babies recorded · 1974–2025

Jazmin: 39 babies born in Scotland since 1974, given to girls, peaking at 7 births in 1992.

Jazmin is the alternative spelling of Jasmine, which traces its roots through Old French and Arabic from the Persian *yasmin*, referring to the fragrant climbing flower that symbolises grace and elegance. One of the most famous bearers is the fictional Disney princess Jasmine from *Aladdin*, a character who has inspired a generation of girls with her independence and courage. In the real world, the name is shared by American actress Jazmin Grace Grimaldi, daughter of Prince Albert II of Monaco, adding a dash of modern royalty. The floral connection also links to the Scottish town of Jazmin? No — but the name shares its sweet-smelling root with the city of Yasmin, a place name used in parts of the Middle East. Notably, Jazmin remains a less common but increasingly popular variant, giving parents a fresh spin on a timeless favourite while keeping its poetic, nature-inspired charm intact.
