I love Jasmine! Jasmin looks like a typo to me. Yasmin is harmless but doesn't do anything for me, and I prefer it spelled Yasmine.

The problem is Yasmin might be associated with the Bratz doll with younger people. I like Yasmine better.

I like Jasmine the best. Or Yasmine (yaz-meen).

oh and....I remember that my friend had a guy named Jasmin in her class at school (his parents weren't German but I don't know where he was from). Jasmin is a very very popular girls name in Germany (the standard spelling is Jasmin) and it is pronounced yuhz-MEEN. The guy pronounced his as YUHZ-meen. He would always get angry when people said yuhz-MEEN. The idea of it on a boy might be nice but I guarantee you he will have problems in life. That Jasmin was teased to no end. Not nice but kids can be mean.

Jasmin is the German spelling of Jasmine (the flower/tree is called "Jasmin" in German). We pronounce it yuhz-MEEN. I like Jasmine (pr. the English way) and Yasmine (pr. yes-MEEN, yuhz-MEEN or yes-MINN)Jasmin and Yasmin look incomplete to me.Jazmin looks weird but I kind of like Jazmine even though I wouldn't use it.I once met a little girl named Yasmeen but I didn't like that very much. I also dislike Yazmeen.

YasminAnd maybe Yasmina. Of Jasmin and Jasmine, I prefer Jasmine; the other looks unfinished for a girl. (For a guy, Jasmin is pretty neat.)

I like Jasmine and Yasmin. Jasmin is okay for a girl, but Jasmin looks unfinished and I can't help knowing that it's a boys' name in Bosnia.

I prefer Jasmine. Jasmin looks incomplete and Yasmin reminds me of the contraceptive pill.S xx

The contraceptive pill...Is a very, very positive association for me. :-)
