Jazlene
Meaning of Jazlene
Jazlene is a contemporary feminine given name formed through the lexical fusion of the Persian-rooted Jasmine—denoting the fragrant flower—and the Anglo-American suffix –lene, resulting in a technically structured appellation that balances botanical symbolism with modern phonetic design. Its emergence in the United States during the early 2000s—initially registering fewer than ten annual occurrences—progressed to a notable apex of 340 births (rank 657) in 2008, after which it settled into a consistent trajectory around the 900th position, as documented by Social Security Administration records. The name’s semantic resonance remains anchored in the jasmine flower’s connotations of elegance and subtlety, while its phonological adaptability—realized as /dʒazˈlin/ in English and /ʒazlin/ in French—underscores a measured versatility suitable for cross-cultural contexts. Analytically, Jazlene exemplifies a niche yet sustained naming trend in which morphological innovation and floral heritage coalesce to produce a designation of refined, cool sophistication.
