Origin of the name Justin: From the Latin JustÄ«nus, which is derived from justus (lawful, right, just). From A World of Baby Names by Teresa Norman.
Had to name my first born Justin...always loved the name because it was a bit different, but not too different. He is 6 and lives up to his name's meaning of being just and righteous. It helps too that he is named after a saint...we are Catholic and that was important.
