How Justin sounds

Say Justin out loud and it glides from one syllable to the next, which is how the scheme recognizes a water sound. Justin is among the most common names in recent U.S. birth records, so it will feel familiar to almost everyone. Most people named Justin in U.S. birth records are boys.
The Saju view
The opening of Justin falls in the metal group of the sound-element table, because it is a hissing, teeth-edge sound. In Saju, Justin carries metal. That makes it a natural choice for charts where metal is the thinnest of the five elements. Justin supports water from behind: its metal sound is the traditional source of that element. A chart that already holds plenty of metal is better served by another name, since Justin would add to it.
