Can you believe it’s Friday already? This week’s Mommy Moments theme is “Name Game,” the story behind the names of our kids or the meaning of our kids’ names.
After listing down a few boys’ names that I got from my Internet search, my husband and I both agreed that Justin is how we would call our baby boy. The name “Justin” is of Latin origin, which means “just, upright, righteous.” Saint Justin (second century) was a Greek philosopher who wrote of the moral values of Christianity. We like our son to grow up exactly as his name implies. We want him to be morally upright. And to tell the world that he is his daddy’s son, we added “Edward,” (from his father’s name “Eduardo”), so my son’s complete first name is “Justin Edward.”

Glad to know the origin of your child's name
Those are cool names. I was wishing I could name my son Edward. Justin seems to have become popular in the Philippines over the last decade.
That's a great name. I learned so uch on today's MM. ABout meanings, Justin is a honorable name.
JUSTIN, simple to pronounce, simple to write but with great meaning. :)
I like the name justin kaya nga justine din pinangalan sa baby girl ko. Sa internet din namin nakuha ang name I just forgot the meaning, now you reminded me sa meaning of the name. Nice pick of name tetcha.
Pareho pala ng name sila ng name ni Toby :)

That's what I want my daughter to become too - morally upright. But your son has the name to be always reminded. How cool!
Beautiful and meaningful name. My nephew's name is Justin too.
