What is the meaning of the name Dustie ?

Dustie is English in Origin.

Dustie is a modern English given name, a playful variant of Dusty used as both a nickname and a standalone. It can derive from Dustin, an English surname-turned-forename ultimately from Old Norse Thorsteinn, "Thor's stone," or be taken straight from the English adjective dusty, lending an earthy, rustic tone. The -ie ending gives this spelling a softer, often feminine cast while remaining broadly unisex.

In American use, Dustie emerged in the later 20th century alongside the boom of Dustin and the casual, Western-tinged word-name trend. While never common, it’s familiar and friendly. Variants and related forms include Dusty, Dusti, Dustee, and Dustin (with Dusten/Dustan as rarer spellings). Meanings therefore range from the mythic "Thor's stone" to the descriptive "dust-colored" or "weathered," making Dustie a name that blends rugged outdoorsy imagery with a light, approachable nickname feel.
