Justino

Justino is a masculine given name used in Spanish, Portuguese, and Italian-speaking communities. It derives from the Latin name Justinus, which itself comes from justus meaning "just" or "righteous." The form Justino is common in Spain and Latin America, in Portugal and Brazil, and among Italian-speaking populations. The name has cognates in other Romance languages, such as Justin in English and Justo in Spanish, though usage and form vary by country.

In religious and historical contexts, Justinus appears in early Christian writings, and Justino is the form used in several Romance-language traditions for saints or scholars bearing the name Justin. In contemporary times, Justino remains used as a traditional given name in diverse communities and can appear in literature and media as a personal name.
