The name Austin means ‘great’.
Austin is a derivative of the ancient Roman name ‘Augustus’ and is a medieval colloquial form of the Latin ‘Augustinus.’
The Latin adjective ‘augustus’ means ‘great, magnificent’, thus, Roman Emperors adopted the name as a superlative title for themselves.
Even though Austin has been around as a vernacular form of Augustus since the Middle Ages and historically used as a surname, the name does have a long history as a masculine given name in the United States, probably in honor of Stephen Fuller Austin (1793-1836) credited as being the ‘Father of Texas’; Austin, Texas was named after him.
Today, Austin is most popular as a baby boy’s name in Canada, followed by the United States and Australia.
Naming children after geographical places is a modern trend particularly with American babies.
