History & Origin

Jullien is a French-flavored spelling of Julien, the French form of Julian, from the Roman name Julius. The doubled l gives the elegant continental name an extra flourish while keeping its ancient Roman roots and the sense 'youthful'.

Jullien stayed very rare in United States records. It appeared around 1991, reached a quiet high of a couple dozen boys a year around 2009, and remained an uncommon choice. A boy named Jullien then is in his teens now.

Did you know? Through Julian and Julius, Jullien connects to the Julii, the ancient Roman family of Julius Caesar himself.
