Across the world, ياسير (ياسير 
, Jassyr 
) is a rare predominantly boy's, but scarcely girly forename. The first name ياسير is characteristic of Morocco, where it is quite a rare principally masculine, but very infrequently female name, Sudan, where it is a rare masculine name, and Saudi Arabia, where it is a very rare boy's name. Very seldom, ياسير is the last name as well as the forename.
