What is the meaning of the name Juuso ?

The baby name Juuso is a Male name , 2 syllables long and is pronounced /ˈjuːso/ (YOO-so).

Juuso is Finnish in Origin.

Juuso is a Finnish masculine given name rooted in the biblical name Joseph, from Hebrew Yosef, “he will add, increase.” The form arose through Finnish adaptation of Nordic/European Joseph-forms, aligning with native phonology (long u and final -o). Alongside the formal Finnish forms Joosef and Jooseppi, Juuso is widely used as a standalone given name.

In Finland, Juuso appears in records from the 19th century and grew strongly in the late 20th century, aided by a broader revival of short, vowel-rich names. Cognates and variants include Joosef/Jooseppi (Finnish), Josef (Scandinavian, German), Joseph (English), Józef (Polish), José (Spanish, Portuguese), Giuseppe (Italian), József (Hungarian), Iosif (Russian), and Yosef (Hebrew). It retains the core sense of addition or increase, often read as a sign of blessing.
