I got my hair cut a few days ago and the hairdresser's kid was hanging around. He was named Justice, and was about 7.

Her dad is a well respected state representative and lawyer so I'm guessing it's in honor of him. I think I would like it better on a girl. What do you think?

I have a male cousin named Justice. It works for a boy or a girl, in my opinon.

Don't really like it... it seems more feminine than masculine to me anyway.

REALLY dislike this name. I'd prefer it on a girl though, because it reminds me of Justine.

I prefer it on a boy, but it's one of those guilty pleasures I will never use.

I don't really like it. I might use it in fiction, but I'd never use it for a real person. I'm sure it's great if they're going to grow up to be Captain America/Zorro/whatever but otherwise it just sounds odd to me.

Lol well that's my *other* issue with virtue names.

I have a friend who has a son by that name and they call him "Juju"... I don't like it, at all- but it sounds better for a girl than a boy.

I think it is giving the kid a lot to live up to.....

But I like it. :)

A little girl who used to go to the daycare I work for is named Justice so to me it's a girl's name but I guess I could see it on a boy.

I had a history professor named Justus. I always thought it was cool.

i prefer it in the feminine. Justice was a goddess afterall. i personally would not do it for a boy, but its not that bad.
