History & Origin

Jasoor renders Arabic Jasur in English letters, from the root j-s-r, 'to dare, to venture'. The usual gloss is 'brave, daring, bold'. The name is used across the Arab world and in Central Asia in related forms, and travels into English-speaking countries with families (said 'juh-SOOR').

In the U.S. it appears only rarely for boys. Rare, heritage-rooted, and bold.
