Meaning

Jasmine flower, in the documented floral-name traditions.

The exact English entry identifies Jasmin as a Jasmine variant; Finnish explicitly describes a floral name, and Serbo-Croatian derives the personal name from the jasmine word. These support the flower-name interpretation without making a claim about a bearer’s character.

Origin

Flower-derived name used in several languages, with Persian word ancestry through different borrowing routes.

English records a Jasmine variant; Finnish describes borrowing from French, German documents a word route through French, Spanish and Arabic to Persian, and Serbo-Croatian derives the name from the local jasmine word. The same spelling has female uses and a documented rare French male use; language and gender contexts remain distinct.
