Meaning & origin
Jasman is a rare and modern name that first appeared in U.S. records in 1981. It has never appeared in the top 1000 names, but its peak year was 1990, when a small number of parents chose the name. The name follows a stable trajectory, meaning its usage has been consistently low rather than clearly rising or falling. Jasman is almost always given to girls. While its exact origins are uncertain, it may be a creative variation of Jasmine, which is itself derived from the Persian word for the flower. This name offers a distinctive option for parents seeking something uncommon.
Jasman appears to be a modern coinage, likely formed from the root 'Jas-' (as in Jasmine) combined with the fashionable suffix '-man'. It first appeared in U.S. records in 1981, but never reached a rank in the top 1000 names, suggesting it has been used only occasionally. It is almost exclusively given to girls.
