Jussi

Jussi is a Finnish name, and it is traditionally used as a boy name. The meaning of Jussi is 'gift from God', 'Yahwe is gracious', 'God is merciful', 'tiller of the soil', 'farmer', or 'earth worker'. The name Jussi is regarded as the short form of some Finnish names like Juhani, Juho, Johannes, John, Justus, and Justin. But, it has gained much popularity and is now regarded as a name on its own. So, many sources say it is of Finnish origin. The name Jussi has also gained a lot of popularity among the Christian population. A few other sources believe that the name Jussi is a variant form of the Greek name Geórgios, which is derived from two ancient Greek words 'gê', which means 'earth' or 'soil', and 'érgon', meaning 'work', and when joined together means 'tiller of the soil', 'farmer', or 'earth worker'. This origin links the name Jussi to the Greek god Zeus, who was a farmer before he became the ruler of all Greek gods and goddesses. This former responsibility as an agricultural god made the name Geórgios and its variants famous, such as Jussi, which is regarded as the Finnish variant of Geórgios. Many famous personalities have the name Jussi, such as Jussi Björling, a Swedish tenor; and Jussi Chydenius, a Finnish musician.
