Augustyn is Latin in Origin.
Augustyn is the Polish form of Augustine, from Latin Augustinus, itself derived from Augustus “venerable, majestic,” ultimately linked to augere “to increase.” The meaning conveys dignity, greatness, and reverence. Variants across languages include Augustin (Czech, Slovak, German, French), Augustinus (Latin), Agustín (Spanish), Agostino (Italian), Auguste (French), Avgustin/Avhustyn (Russian/Ukrainian), Augustinas (Lithuanian), and the English Augustine; the Polish feminine is Augustyna. Common Polish short forms are Gucio and Gustek.
Usage took root in medieval Christian Europe through the influence of saints named Augustine, most notably Augustine of Hippo (feast 28 August), theologian and Doctor of the Church. In Poland, Augustyn appears in parish records from the Middle Ages and enjoyed periodic favor among clergy, scholars, and the gentry, later experiencing 19th–20th‑century revivals. Today it feels classic yet uncommon, aligning with the broader renaissance of traditional, Latin-rooted names; Polish name day is 28 August.
