    Just thought I'd let you know that I spelt DD1 Jazmyne so when she was older & her name shortened it would already be Jaz, not Jas. I always thought it was funkier for some reason. My main reason for calling her Jazmyne was so she'd have the nickname Jaz.
    Now that she is older she loves it to, coz her name is the same as her favourite type of dancing, jazz, lol!
    And I just wanted her to be a bit different.
    Jasmine is my favourite flower also I really like all the spellings. Jasmyne is pretty.

    I like the traditional spelling best. Jasmine. I'm not rally a fan of different spellings, makes it too confusing

    I would go with the common spelling Jasmine, but Jasmyn looks nice with Isabelle.

    On a side note, if you have a boy and then he has a son, how much pressure is there going to be to call him Neville in line with tradition, lol. I'm not so keen on Neville as a hypothetical first name, love William though
    Haha i know, i did think of that... and i'm not a fan of neville this day and age either however i didn't think excluding that name would be very appropriate... lol guess i'll just have to tell him that he's under no obligation to keep it going

    thanks everyone for your feedback.. guess i've still got 7 months to decide and it may not even be a girl haha

    I like Jasmine best. I think it's much easier for kids if the spelling is the usual spelling - Jasmine is a beautiful name - gorgeous!

    from someone with unusual spelling (karyn, not karen) - go look at the cups / mugs / etc around and choose that spelling. I always hated that I couldn't get a Garfield cup with my name on it and other kids could!

    Having said that, I do like Yasmin or Jasmyn.
