Farmer, through the documented Yuri and George name-family route.
The French rendering Youri belongs to the Russian Yuri name family, equivalent to George. The George entry traces the name to Greek elements for earth and work. This is an inherited root explanation, not a literal translation of modern French Youri. The separate Japanese Yuri tradition is not included.
Origin
French rendering of the Russian given name Yuri (Юрий).
The exact French personal-name entry identifies Youri as a rendering of Russian Юрий, equivalent to Yuri. This establishes the documented French-to-Russian route; deeper Greek roots require a separate parent-name review.
