The mother announced in a video, which has since received over 25 million views, that she and her partner named him Midnight.
But now the actress, duped a Marilyn Monroe look-a-like, has hit back at trolls for “bullying my three-week old son”, and sending her and her partner death threats.
In a follow-up video, Jasmine told her 15 million followers it was “extremely unfair and not okay”.
She said: “I just don’t think that is right, and to be honest it made me really really sad.
“People were also sending my husband and I death threats through DMs just over my baby’s name.
“We didn’t expect everyone to like the name.

“It was one of those names you either love it or you hate it but please be kind, and if you don’t like it, just please scroll by.”
In the original video, users did not shy away from sharing their opinions on the unusual moniker, as many believed it was initially a joke.
Commenting, one wrote: “I’m sorry but I really hope that this is a joke?”
“Please tell me it’s not,” said another, while a third wrote, “Baby names are literally becoming a joke now.”
In another comment, which has since been deleted, one said: “oh its [sic] bad.”
Another joked: “Can’t wait for baby no 2, Midday.”
The social media star shot to fame on TikTok after showing her life living in Marilyn Monroe’s former mansion.
She is considered the spitting image of the iconic celeb and even swapped Scottish mountains for the Hollywood Hills to pursue her dream of working as a film producer.
Jasmine regularly posts TikTok tours of the Some Like It Hot star’s opulent $2.7million mansion nestled in California’s Runyon Canyon, which she shared with her husband Joe DiMaggio during their marriage in 1954.
