Jutka is Hungarian in Origin.
Jutka is a Hungarian and Central/Eastern European pet form of the name Judith, derived through Hungarian Judit and Yiddish Yutke, all tracing back to Hebrew Yehudit, “woman from Judea/Jewish woman.” In Hungarian phonology it’s pronounced “YOOT-kah,” with -ka marking an affectionate diminutive. The form sits alongside Czech Jitka and German Jutta as regional offshoots of the enduring Judith family.
As a familiar name it circulated widely in 19th–20th-century Hungary and within Ashkenazi communities of the Carpathian Basin, sometimes appearing as an independent given name on records. The broader Judith tradition owes its persistence to the biblical heroine celebrated for slaying Holofernes, which kept the root name current across medieval and modern Europe. Related and variant forms include Judith (English), Judit (Hungarian), Judita (Slavic languages), Jitka (Czech), Jutta (German), Giuditta (Italian), Yehudit/Yudit (Hebrew/Israeli), and Yutke/Yutka (Yiddish). Hungarian nicknames include Juci and Juditka.
