History & Origin

Yasmen traces to the Persian yasmin, 'jasmine,' the fragrant flowering plant, a name that spread widely across Arabic, Turkish, and European languages as Yasmin, Jasmin, and Jasmine.

It grew in the years surrounding the wider Jasmine/Yasmin boom of the early 1990s, reaching a small peak of about eighteen girls in 1994, and had faded from records by 2011.

Did you know? Yasmen shares its root with Jasmine, the English form of the same Persian flower name that became hugely popular after Disney's Aladdin in 1992.
