I'm a little unclear on your prn...the "mine" rhyming with line, or rhyming with seen? I could definitely understand and possibly accept the 'een' prn (despite my intense dislike for 'een' names), but the line-rhyme makes me think "Jess of mine". It's cute, but a bit too cutesy, IYKWIM.

All that being said, I love Jessamine and Jessamyn with the 'min' prn. I especially like Jessamyn b/c of author Jessamyn West who set her stories mostly in rural parts of Indiana. However, an Evangelynn and a Jessamyn would be so wrong in the same sibset!

I adore Jessamine and Jessamyn, but I couldn't use either of them as I have a cousin Jessica "Jess" and it would just be too close. They're both adorable.

I love Delilah and Katherine, although Keats does nothing for me, it'd have to be Kate all the way. Verity is cute and used to be one of my top names, but June has never done much for me, I prefer Jean or Jane.

I really like it. It's got a pleasant sound, isn't overly popular but not too obscure. It's a good alternative to Jasmine and I also like the nicknames Jess. Jessa is ok as well but I've never heard it before.

I'm not so keen on Verity, Delilah and June, though.

I love Jessamine as well, especially with the nn Jess. Its got a traditional sound to it, but has never been well-used, and is definately not too wacko like many new-fangled names.

A refreshing alternative to Jasmine. Very pretty.

That's a beautiful name. Love it.
