Justein is in Origin.

Justein is a rare modern given name whose form bridges Latin and Germanic naming traditions. Most commonly it is treated as a creative variant of Justin, ultimately from Latin Iustinus, a derivative of iustus, meaning "just, righteous, fair." The -ein spelling echoes the look of Germanic -stein ("stone") surnames and of Scandinavian forenames, which has led some to compare it with Norwegian Jostein, though the etymologies are distinct.

Usage appears sporadically from the late 20th century onward, chiefly in English- and Scandinavian-speaking communities, where parents sought a distinctive twist on Justin or a family-influenced blend. Related or alternative forms include Justin, Justen, Juston, Justan; the feminine Justine; and cognates such as Justus and the Scandinavian Jostein (from Old Norse Jósteinn). Accordingly, the most reliable meaning for Justein follows Justin - "upright, equitable" - while any association with "stone" is best viewed as a modern, stylistic impression rather than a historical root.
