History & Etymology
Gusty is primarily a diminutive or nickname for Augusta or Augustine. Augusta is a Latin name meaning 'majestic, venerable,' derived from the Roman imperial title Augustus, which was first bestowed upon Gaius Octavius by the Roman Senate in 27 BC. The feminine form, Augusta, became a popular name among Roman empresses and later European royalty.
