Augustina, of Latin origin, is a feminine given name derived from the Roman family name 'Aurelius', which means 'golden'. It was often used as a female form of the masculine name Aurelius. This name has been popular in various cultures throughout history, particularly in Poland and other Slavic countries where it is spelled Augusta or Augustyna.
The name Augustina experienced a peak in popularity during the early to mid-1900s, with over 40 births annually between 1922 and 1932. However, it seems that its usage has significantly declined since then, with fewer than 25 births per year occurring from the late 1940s onwards. In recent years (2018-2023), there have been around 15-25 births each year, suggesting a slight resurgence in popularity for this name.
