Jutta is a feminine German given name, derived as a medieval Low German form of Judith. The name Judith itself comes from the Hebrew Yehudit, meaning 'Jewish woman', a feminine form of Yehudi , which originally referred to a person from the tribe of Judah. In the Old Testament, Judith is one of the Hittite wives of Esau, and the apocryphal Book of Judith features a heroic widow who saves Israel by decapitating the Assyrian general Holofernes. When the name entered German-speaking Europe, it underwent phonetic changes. Some sources also suggest Jutta may derive from the Germanic name Eutha, meaning 'mankind, child, descendant', or from a short form of Henrietta.Over time, Jutta became particularly popular in Germany, yet it never rose exceptionally high on the popularity charts compared to other German forms of classic biblical names. However, the name has a recognizable profile among notable western and Central Europeans.Notable BearersNotable holders of Jutta across several fields include politicians Jutta Ditfurth, renowned German sociologist and politician of the Alliance 90/The Greens; Jutta Braband, a German Democratic Republic politician and peace activist; and Jutta Appelt, who has served as an impartial representative in international arbitration.
