Origin
Meaning and history of Jsutin
The name Jsutin has its origins in the ancient Etruscan civilization, which flourished in what is now modern-day Italy between the 8th and 3rd centuries BC. It is believed to be derived from the Etruscan word "jsut," which means "to shine" or "to radiate."
One of the earliest recorded instances of the name Jsutin can be found in an Etruscan funerary inscription dating back to the 5th century BC. This inscription, found near the city of Perugia, mentions a man named "Jsutinus," which is thought to be a variant of the name Jsutin.
In the 2nd century AD, the Roman historian Suetonius mentioned a Roman emperor named Jsutinus in his work "The Twelve Caesars." However, historians believe Suetonius may have been referring to the emperor Justinian I, whose name was likely Latinized from the Etruscan Jsutin.
During the Middle Ages, the name Jsutin gained popularity among the nobility of various European kingdoms. One notable bearer of the name was Jsutin of Paderborn (c. 951-986), a German count and military leader who played a significant role in the defense of the Holy Roman Empire against Hungarian invasions.
In the Renaissance period, the name Jsutin was borne by several influential figures in the arts and sciences. Jsutin Martyr (c. 1459-1526) was an Italian humanist and philosopher who made significant contributions to the study of Neoplatonism. Jsutin Ricci (1552-1611), an Italian Jesuit missionary, was one of the first Westerners to introduce Western science and philosophy to China.
Another notable figure with the name Jsutin was Jsutin Winsor (1831-1897), an American librarian and historian who served as the librarian of Harvard University and wrote several important works on the history of America.
While the name Jsutin has its roots in ancient Etruscan culture, it has been adopted and adapted by various civilizations throughout history, reflecting the diverse and rich tapestry of human cultures and traditions.

FAQ
Jsutin: questions and answers
How many people in the U.S. are named Jsutin?
Name Census puts the figure at roughly 51 living Americans. We arrive at this by taking every SSA birth registration for Jsutin going back to 1880 and adjusting each cohort for expected survival using CDC actuarial life tables. The result is an age-weighted living-bearer count, not a raw birth total. That works out to about 1 in 6,720,673 US residents.
Is Jsutin a common name?
We classify Jsutin as "Very Rare". It ranks above 54.6% of all first names in the SSA dataset by living bearers. Across the full history of the data, 53 babies have been registered with this name.
When was Jsutin most popular?
The single biggest year for Jsutin was 1989, when 11 babies received the name. The fact that the average living Jsutin is about 41 years old gives you a rough sense of which era contributed the most bearers who are still alive today.
What does the SSA popularity chart show?
The chart tracks births, not the number of people alive with the name today. Each point shows how many babies were given the name Jsutin in that year. That makes it useful for spotting when the name rose, peaked, or faded.
Is Jsutin a male name?
Yes, 100.0% of people registered as Jsutin in the SSA data are male. You can see the full per-sex comparison in the gender distribution section above, which includes the latest year rank, birth count, and peak year for each sex.
Is Jsutin still being used today?
Yes. The SSA still recorded Jsutin in 2024, and the page above shows its latest-year rank where available. A name can be well past its peak and still remain in steady use, especially if it built up a large population over earlier decades.
Why can a name have a lot of living bearers even if it is not trendy now?
Because living-bearer counts and current baby-name popularity measure different things. A name like Jsutin can build up a very large population over many decades, even if fewer parents are choosing it now than they did at its peak.
Where does this data come from?
First-name figures come from the Social Security Administration's national baby name files, which cover every name on a birth certificate from 1880 to 2024. Living-bearer estimates layer in CDC actuarial life tables broken out by sex to account for mortality. The population baseline (342,754,338) is the Census Bureau's latest national estimate. You can read the full calculation on our methodology page.
Does every first name have Census demographic data?
No. The public Census first-name release only covers names that met the Bureau's publication rules, so many rarer names in the SSA files do not have a published Census demographic snapshot. In those cases, the page still shows the SSA trend, gender history, and state data.
