Meaning and history
Jasmyn is a modern English spelling variant of Jasmine. Jasmine comes through French and Persian from Persian yāsamin, the name of the fragrant flowering plant. The flower has long been valued in perfumery and cultivated across Asia, the Middle East, and the Mediterranean. The y in Jasmyn is a stylistic spelling choice and does not create a separate meaning. Notable bearers include English actor Jasmyn Banks and American long jumper Jasmyn Steels.
Jasmyn moved from #931 to #955 for girls between 2006 and 2007. Its highest annual birth count came in 2004, with 292 births.
