What is the meaning of the name Justinah ?

Justinah is Latin in Origin.

Justinah is a feminine given name formed as a regional spelling of Justina/Justine, ultimately from the Roman cognomen Justinus, derived from Latin iustus, “just, fair, righteous.” The name spread through Late Antiquity with Christian devotion to martyrs such as Saint Justina of Padua and Saint Justina of Antioch, and appears in ecclesiastical Latin and Greek as Iustina/Ioustina.

Variants include Justina (English, Spanish, Portuguese), Giustina (Italian), Justine (French, English), Justyna (Polish), Iustina or Yustina (Slavic and liturgical forms), and Xustina (Galician). Nicknames range from Tina and Ina to Justy. The specific spelling Justinah is attested in West Africa (notably Nigeria and Ghana), the Caribbean, and among their diasporas, where the -ah ending echoes biblical name patterns and marks the final vowel in pronunciation (jus-TEE-nah). The meaning remains “just” or “upright.” Usage today is uncommon in the US/UK but persists in Catholic/Orthodox calendars and African church communities.
