just wanted to get peoples thoughts on the name Jasmine, me and oh both like it but wasnt sure how popular it is? Another thing is the inlaws dog is called Jaz do you think this matters? Oh reckons not but dont know if im just looking into it too much? We both do like it though (about the only one we agree on) and thought it went quite well with our little boys name Logan.

Yes, very nice name, not too widespread as far as I know. I wouldn't worry about the dog Smile

One of my dd1s best friends is Jasmine - always called Jaz or Jazzy now at age 14.

I think it's cool.

It's in the top 50 so not unpopular. I like it.

It's not at all my usual style but I actually really like it.

Very pretty Smile .

I quite like it. I also like Jasmina and Yasmina.

It is lovely.

The dog being called Jaz won't necessarily be an issue, just ask people to call her Jasmine!

Pretty name. I don't mean to sound callous (I'm a dog lover) but the dog won't be around forever...

Very popular around here, probably rivals Isabel variants. Also have Yasmin & Jasmin.
It's okay. Like Emily or Amy to me.

Too Disney for me I'm afraid, sorry

It's a beautiful name. Quite popular round our way at the moment for teenagers but less so for babies.

It's a slightly difficult name to carry. A young Jasmine needs to be pretty and a teen Jaz needs to be cool.

Agree dogs aren't a problem DSIS and relatives' DD shared a name when she was small, but no one worried and Ddalmation wasn't about by the time she was older.

Really pretty name. I know a 7yr old jasmine, and a few in their 20s. One has a nn of Minnie.

I love it. My DN is Jasmine. She does get called Jaz sometimes.

It's not completely unique but I only know of one other...

Love it, great name (and I'm not usually one for "nature" names).

We picked out Jasmine for a girl straight away. We just keep having boys so never had a chance to use it!

Very sweet name IMO. Few around but not overly popular.
