Yasmin gets my vote. I loved Jasmine!

Shagged · 23/10/2019 21:56

I also prefer Jasmine to Yasmin

Jasmine Elizabeth is gorgeous

missmouse101 · 23/10/2019 21:58

Yasmin-lovely! Iris is awful, part of the eye and getting very popular.

Floofffs · 23/10/2019 22:03

Jasmine Elizabeth really flows beautifully

Marlena1 · 23/10/2019 22:04

Yasmine is gorgeous

Loveislandaddict · 23/10/2019 22:16

Iris is more granny-chic, whilst Yasmin sounds exotic to me. Different types of name.

Alternatives:
Doris
Lily
Edith
Elsie
Vera

Allegra
Demi
Giselle
Jacinda
Nadine
Simone

Tough choice, growing up I loved the name yasmin, I thought it was so glamorous but I also love the name iris, its one one of my favourite songs too!
I think you will find fewer yasmin's so if you want to go less popular, I'd choose that

Hydrogenbeatsoxygen · 23/10/2019 22:21

Yasmin

MissHenty · 23/10/2019 22:30

pinkpanther84 · 23/10/2019 22:32

Iris

misspiggy19 · 23/10/2019 22:33

Yasmin

Eleanorbellanor · 23/10/2019 22:34

Prefer jasmine

MrsBertBibby · 23/10/2019 22:39

I prefer Iris, but I'm not sure it sits quite right with Elizabeth.

Astronica · 24/10/2019 00:38

Iris Elizabeth is lovely.

DramaAlpaca · 24/10/2019 00:40

Difficult choice as they are very different styles, but I'd choose Iris I think.

HalfManHalfLabrador · 24/10/2019 00:43

I was bullied by a Yasmin so it’s Iris from me

Jossina · 24/10/2019 05:28

Iris

AutumnalLeaves38 · 24/10/2019 06:19

Yasmin

rainbowstardrops · 24/10/2019 06:21

Yasmin but I prefer Jasmine. It seems softer and prettier

Dirtyjellycat · 24/10/2019 06:23

Yasmin

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 24/10/2019 06:31

Yasmin Elizabeth doesn't work imo because Yasmin sounds exotic but Elizabeth traditional classic.

Iris Elizabeth works well, but as pp said Iris is becoming very popular and on its own is not as beautiful as Yasmin.

I vote for Yasmin but with alternative middle name.

siriusblackthemischieviouscat · 24/10/2019 06:31

Iris and Yasmine are such different names I find it hard to imagine one couple like both names. Personally i don't like Yasmine, I don't know why though.

Iris is a name that's grown on me. Its a family name for me though and two generations above me so has always been an 'old person' name 😂

MikeUniformMike · 24/10/2019 08:54

Yasmin

TheVoiceInTheShed · 24/10/2019 08:56

Iris - it is beautiful and after the flower (and not part of the eye as pp said)Grin

CakeRattleandRoll · 24/10/2019 09:49

Yasmin gets my vote, although Iris is lovely, too. It is definitely possible to like both names!
