Julia" was written for John's mother Julia Lennon (1914–1958), who was knocked down and killed by a car driven by an off-duty police officer when John was 17 years old. It was also written for his future wife Yoko Ono, whose first name, which literally means "child of the sea" in Japanese, is echoed in lyrics such as "Oceanchild, calls me." An alternative theory suggests that the song was written for Julian Lennon, John's son. :)

Tictacca's correct - it was written about John's mother who he hardly ever saw. He orignally wrote "Hey Jude" as "Hey Jules" for his son Julian, but changed it to Jude for some reason.
