History & Origin

Jasman is a modern American girls' name, a clipped form of Jasmine, whose roots run through French and Arabic to the Persian yasmin, the jasmine flower. It appears in United States records from about 1980, riding the strong popularity of Jasmine in that era.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year at its 1990 high before easing off by the late 2000s. A girl named Jasman then is in her mid-thirties today.
