History & Origin
Jasin is a modern respelling of Jason, from Greek Iason, usually read as 'healer'. The name carries both a myth — Jason and the Argonauts — and a New Testament bearer, and it became an American staple in the twentieth century. The -in spelling is a recent, softer take (said 'JAY-sin').
In the U.S. this spelling appears only rarely for boys, against far heavier use of Jason. Rare spelling, classic root.
