Juste Origin and Meaning

The name Juste is a boy's name of French origin.

Juste is a masculine name with French origins, derived from the Latin 'justus' meaning 'just,' 'righteous,' or 'fair.' Used more commonly in France and French-speaking regions, this name carries strong connotations of integrity, morality, and ethical character. While relatively uncommon in English-speaking countries, Juste has a sophisticated European quality that appeals to parents seeking names with both meaning and cultural cachet. The name's single-syllable simplicity combined with its silent 'e' ending gives it a distinctly French flair. Historically, the name has connections to several Christian saints, including Saint Juste of Lyon, providing it with religious significance for some families. The name represents qualities of fairness and moral strength.
