What are your thoughts on the name Justin?

[bluebabydinosaur]

Do you think Justin is a good baby boy name?

Anyone else really want to know the taxi driver joke?

I quite like it! Mr Tumble connection aside.

Justin Trudeau, he’s a good Justin.

Justin Elliott.

Straight away I think bieber

Justin Fletcher is on everything on cbeebies - it's going to be inescapable for years with the link. Hell the guy even is a tweenie and voice in Shaun the sheep

It's a perfectly respectable name and more classic than dated, derives from Latin and prevalent in the Middle Ages. Good luck with it OP.

I prefer Justus.

I take it the rude joke is the small dick one?

It tainted it as a name for me completely.

Wasn't the mankind-leotard wearing lead singer of The Darkness a Justin? Really not a rock n roll name.

How about Julian ?

Mr tumble.
Although I know an incredibly cool hipster type who is 23 who rocks it.

FWIW I like it

It makes me think of League of Gentlemen “Justin,Justin my very own Justin”
But that’s a really old sketch.

Dated & not nice

Just in case...think that everytime I hear the name.

My first thought was Timberlake. Then Beiber. Then Fletcher. What about Tristan?

Justin Sullivan is my hero.

Mr Tumble is awful, annoying and inescapable when you have a kid.

I also remember it being the rude punchline for a joke. You can guess what that might be.

No.

I immediately think of Justin Finch-Fletchley from Harry Potter and after that Justin Bieber. I think it’s a very dated name now too

I'm really sorry, but I think it's both dated & wet.

Jasper?

holibab he's my hero too.
I'm so looking forward to the new album tour.

Justin is a lovely name. There won't be others in his class.

As a teen I used to daydream about calling my first son Justin....because I had a huge crush on Justin Timberlake! I didn't, in fact, give DS that name. I think it's ok though and not hugely popular either which lots of people like.

It is a reflection of my life that I think Fletcher before Timberlake or Beiber!

I don’t like it at all OP, sorry.

Mr tumble and Justin's House are first thoughts...

Justin... Fletcher, Bieber, Timberlake.

It was a boys name when I was at school (80s, early 90s).
Also in Majorca I met a German couple with a toddler called Justin. All holiday it was 'Justin, Just-innnn!!!'.

So I'm not keen on the name.

I like it. It's one of the few names DH has actually suggested (all other suggestions have come from me, my mum and MIL).

I've only ever met one. I'd use it if you like it, we're seriously considering it

I like it. I think it's 'not popular' at the moment rather than dated. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's a good Latin (Roman actually) name so quite well recognised in other cultures, and has a saint's day etc. I know a couple of Justin's but no children with the name.
