Sebastiane is a rare feminine form of Sebastian, from Latin Sebastianus, itself from Greek Sebastianos “person from Sebaste,” a city named for sebastos, “venerable, august” (the Greek equivalent of Latin Augustus). As such, the name carries the sense of reverence, dignity, and esteem.

Established international variants include Sebastiana (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese) and Sébastienne (French), with additional feminine forms Bastiana and Bastienne. Sebastiane sometimes appears in artistic or literary contexts (the Latin-vocative title of Derek Jarman’s film), but as a given name it remains distinctive and uncommon. Related masculine forms span Sebastian, Sébastien, Sebastián, Sebastiano, Sebastião, and Hungarian Sebestyén. Possible nicknames include Seb, Seba, Basti, Tia, and Tiane. Meaning-focused parents may appreciate its association with “venerable” grace.
