What Jazmine Means
Jazmine means the jasmine flower. It names the plant, so the sense is its scent and appearance rather than any quality of a person, and the word arrived in Europe with the cutting rather than by translation.
Where Jazmine Comes From
Jazmine is an American respelling of Jasmine, from the Persian yasmin, carried into Arabic and from there into Spanish, French and English along with the cutting. Because the word moved with the plant rather than by translation, it arrived almost unchanged everywhere. The flower opens at night and is picked before dawn, which is why it stands beside the rose and the nightingale throughout Persian poetry.
