- Justin Meaning
- From the Latin name Iustinus, which was derived from Justus. This was the name of several early saints including Justin Martyr, a Christian philosopher of the 2nd century who was beheaded in Rome. It was also borne by two Byzantine emperors. As an English name, it has occasionally been used since the late Middle Ages, though it did not become common until the 20th century. Justin originates in Latin language and means "to be fair or just". It is ultimately derived from the Latin Justus, the name of various Roman saints. As a masculine given name it became really popular in the English speaking countries in the 2nd half of the 20th century. Recent famous bearers include Justin Bieber and Justin Timberlake.
