Boris Isaakovitch Utin (1832–1872) was a professor at Saint Petersburg University. He was sympathetic to the student movement in Russia and resigned during the student unrest of 1861, afterwards becoming a lawyer and a member of the Saint Petersburg District Court and the Saint Petersburg Court of Justice.

His close friendship with Karolina Pavlova inspired a number of her poems.[1][2]
