Auguste is German, Latin, Lithuanian in Origin.
Auguste is the French masculine form of Latin Augustus, “venerable, exalted,” ultimately linked to augere, “to increase, enrich.” It appears across Europe from late antiquity as a title-turned-given name honoring the first Roman emperor. In German usage, however, Auguste is traditionally feminine - the counterpart to August - while masculine forms there are August or Augustus. Related names include Augusta (fem.), Augusto (Romance), August (Scandinavian/English), and the cognates Augustin and Augustine.
Use peaked in the 18th–19th centuries among scholars, artists, and bourgeois families, with notable bearers such as philosopher Auguste Comte, sculptor Auguste Rodin, and filmmaker Auguste Lumière. Diminutives and nicknames include Gus, Augie/Auggie, and in German-speaking regions Gustl. Today Auguste feels vintage in France and rare in the English-speaking world, yet it appeals to parents seeking a cultured, Continental twist on August with the dignified meaning “majestic” or “worthy of honor.”
