Agostino is Italian in Origin.
Agostino is the Italian form of Augustine, from Latin Augustinus, a derivative of Augustus meaning “venerable, exalted,” ultimately linked to augere, “to increase” or “augment.” The name conveys dignity and greatness, essentially “belonging to Augustus” or “pertaining to the exalted one.” In Italian, familiar diminutives include Tino and Ago; the feminine is Agostina.
Established in Italy through early Christian tradition, the name was strengthened by devotion to Saint Augustine of Hippo (name day 28 August) and also echoes Augustine of Canterbury. It enjoyed steady medieval and Renaissance use, borne by figures such as painter Agostino Carracci, banker-patron Agostino Chigi, and composer Agostino Steffani. While rarer in modern Italy, it remains a cultured, traditional choice. Related forms include Augustine and Austin (English), Augustin (French, German, Czech), Agustín (Spanish), Agostinho (Portuguese), Augustyn (Polish), Auguste (French/German), and Agustinus (Latin/Indonesian).
