Answer

(Fatwa: 367/274/L=1432)

Yasmeen means: Jasmine tree. Taj means: Crown, officer, feather crest. These names and their meanings are correct. However, if you do not like this name, you can choose any of the names of Sahabiyat for your satisfaction. It is wrong to believe that names create trouble. Ask your sister to recite the following dua 500 times daily, in-sha-Allah, all her troubles shall end:
حَسْبُنَا اللّهُ وَنِعْمَ الْوَكِيلُ .

Allah (Subhana Wa Ta’ala) knows Best
