Joost is a male Dutch first name. It derives from the name Jodocus, which can ultimately be traced back to St. Judoc, a Breton saint in the seventh century: Jodocus → Josse → Joos → Joost (the addition of an end-t is a peculiarity of the Dutch language, especially some local dialects). Sometimes an alternative derivation from the Ancient Roman name Justus is suggested.〔(Meertens Instituut database of first names (Dutch) )〕 In Dutch proper it is pronounced (:ˈjoːst). In Afrikaans it is pronounced (:ˈjust). ==Historical== * Joos van Cleve - a Netherlandish painter * Jan Joest van Kalkar - a Netherlandish painter * Joost Bürgi - Swiss clockmaker and mathematician * Joost de Soete - 16th century Dutch field marshal and Lord of Villers * Joost Banckert - Dutch Vice Admiral * Joost van den Vondel - German-Dutch writer and playwright * Joost van Sasse, copper engraver in the 18th century * Joost van Dyk - 17th century Dutch privateer * Arnold Joost van Keppel - 17th century Dutch nobleman 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joost (name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
