Jazmine
Feminine · “jasmine flower”
Jazmine is overwhelmingly a girls’ name — 38,395 girls against 99 boys since 1880.
Jazmine carries a flower that traveled a very long way: the Persian yāsamīn, into Arabic, then into French as jasmin, then into English gardens and English names. The z-spelling sits alongside Spanish Jazmín, which is likely why it took hold most firmly in the southwestern and Florida records. Said aloud, it is indistinguishable from the more common Jasmine — two syllables, the stress up front, ending soft.

The story of Jazmine
The word came into Europe with the plant, along Persian and Arabic trade routes, arriving in French as jasmin and in English as jasmine by the sixteenth century. Its use as a girl's given name belongs to the Victorian fashion for flower names, which put Rose, Lily, Violet and Jasmine into the baptismal registers together. The Jazmine spelling is an American development, and it runs parallel to Spanish Jazmín, the standard form in Spanish-speaking countries — which fits how the name concentrated in California, Texas and Florida. So one spelling, two supply lines: English flower name and Spanish given name, meeting at the same z.

The SSA counts spellings, not names. Jazmine went to 255 girls in 2025, but Jasmine and Jazmyne are the same name said out loud. Together the 4 spellings went to 1,761, which makes it the 187th most-given girls’ name of the year — 805 places above the chart.
and 1 rarer spelling.
About 1 girl in 913 born in 2025 was given one of these spellings — against 1 in 6,303 for Jazmine itself.
Spellings are grouped by a fixed rule that folds interchangeable English spellings of one sound (ck/k, ph/f, x/ks, a non-initial y for i) and keeps vowels apart, so Sean and Shawn stay separate names. It errs towards splitting: a family here is never larger than the truth. SSA national data, 2025. Method

The Ernestine test
Every popular name lives one long story — a climb, a peak, a slow settling back. Jazmine's later chapters haven't been written yet, so we borrowed them: Ernestine climbed just as high around 1926, and its whole arc is on record. Line the two peaks up, and Ernestine's path sketches the road Jazmine is walking now.

The trade-off
- Sounds exactly like the widely known Jasmine, so no one ever has to be taught how to say it.
- Established short forms already in use: Jaz, Jazzy, Jazz.
- The z-spelling matches Spanish Jazmín, which makes it work in both English- and Spanish-speaking families.
- A documented line back through French, Arabic and Persian to the name of the flower itself.
- The s-spelling, Jasmine, is much the more common of the two, so expect a lifetime of "with a z" — on forms, in email addresses, at the coffee counter.
- The flower-name Jasmine was given a large boost by an animated Disney princess of the early 1990s, and some people will hear that association first regardless of spelling.
- The name is easing back from its high point, so a Jazmine today is likely to be the only one in her class while still meeting plenty of grown women who share it.
