Too dated?

Trudeau doesn't really like being called Justin. He has said its not a v presidential name.

Nonetheless I do like the name but it's of a time. The 70s/80s and not probably due a revival yet.

It makes me think of a very immature joke that I was told many years ago.

"What do you call a man with a small penis?"

Shame because I actually quite like it but can't separate the two now.

I like it! Although i like lots of names from the 80s that others consider to be dated.

I think you should use it! It'd very quickly just become the name of your gorgeous wee boy and would lose any connotations with celebrities or being out of date!

Yes yes oh yes.

I think it's a little dated, yes.

It won't travel well. It's popular in Germany (and presumably some other European countries too), pronounced 'Chastin' in a way assumed to be English, and similar in social associations to Jayden et al in the UK.
How about Julian or Julius?
