Meaning

Majestic or venerable, through the Augustinus and Augustus name family.

Augustin is documented in the Latin Augustinus name family. Augustinus derives from Augustus; the interpretation here comes from that older name rather than a claim about a modern bearer.

Origin

Latin Augustinus name family, used in French, German and English.

The Latin source explicitly lists French and German Augustin among descendants. English records Augustin as a variant of Augustine. The Romanian surname and English printing term are separate senses.
