How do you feel about the name Yasmina for a girl?

It’s a little dated to me. Jasmine/Yasmine had its day when Aladdin came out.

Depends on her heritage and her last name.

Yasmina Khadra-fine.
Yasmina Smith -less fine.

Oh also I remember a Yasmine telling me that in Arabic her name means jasmine and can also mean “oh fat one”. Don’t know if that’s true!

I think Yasmin and Jasmine are beautiful.
Yasmina is a bit fussy.

Love it! Beautiful name. I like Yasmine too.

Isn't it a contraceptive?

BlueMerchant · 03/03/2019 09:12

It depends on heritage I think

ContessaIsOnADietDammit · 03/03/2019 09:13

I've known a few in Arab countries and it was perfectly normal. You'll get different responses from a mostly British crowd...

Birth control (although it's technically Yasmin but still made me think of it)

Peachbubble · 03/03/2019 09:37

Prefer Jasmine

Sophronia · 04/03/2019 12:39

I prefer Jasmina.

AliceAforethought · 04/03/2019 12:43

I prefer Jasmine, Jasmin or Yasmin

Yasmina sounds fussy.

I taught a Iasmina. Adorable little girl from Eastern Europe. Love the name.

Reference in Robin Hood POT - it was Morgan freeman's long lost love

I don't care for it. It sounds like birth control or tampons.
