What is the meaning of the name Juro ?

The baby name Juro is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced {'Slavic': 'YOO-roh (IPA: /ˈjuro/)', 'Japanese': 'JOO-roh (long u) (IPA: /dʑɯːroː/)'}.

Juro is Japanese, Slavic in Origin.

Juro is a cross-cultural masculine name with two distinct roots. In Japanese, it represents the romanization of Jūrō (じゅうろう), a traditional male given name. Depending on the kanji, meanings vary: 十郎 combines "ten" (jū) + "son/man" (rō), often indicating a tenth-born boy, while 寿郎 blends "longevity" with "son," conveying wishes for a long, auspicious life. Names ending in -rō peaked from the Edo to early Shōwa eras and now carry vintage charm. Spellings include Jūrō, Juuro, and Juro.

Across Slavic languages, Juro functions as a familiar form of Juraj (George), especially in Slovak usage and regional folklore - note the folk hero Juro Jánošík. Here it inherits the meaning of "farmer; earthworker" from Greek Georgios. Related variants include Juraj, Jurij, Jure, Jiří, Jerzy, Đuro, and English George. As a given name, Juro feels friendly and informal; as a legal name, it appears mainly in Slovakia and parts of Central Europe.
