I prefer Yemima between them. It has a pleasant sound and I think I like the MEE more than MIE.
To me it would win by default anyway. Jemima, unfortunately, has too much of a "mammy" connotation for me to enjoy its merits as a name.

Not sure I like. It doesn't have the aunt Jemima implication, but I'd prefer Yasmina.
I like the sound of Yemima, but the shape of the name is unappealing to me. I much prefer Jemima.
Yemima, no not a fan, but Jemima I love and adore!
