Meaning: (Valiant Fighter, Brave Warrior, A Fighter, Thor’s Stone, Dusty Area, The fame of actor Dustin Hoffman has been a major influence on contemporary usage. Popularity is also influenced by the rhyming similarity to another favored name, Justin.)
Origin: (Old German, Old English)
Pronunciation: (DUS-tin, DUHS-tin)
Gender: Male
I was watching a show the other day and this name popped up on the screen for the person. I have liked it for a while because of WWE Wrestler Dustin "Dusty" Rhodes so I said why not add it here. I have a character in one of my novels named Dusty Rose. I think Dustin is a very nice name. It has a great strong meaning and a good look. It's easy to pronounce which is a plus as well. Good Nicknames: Dusty, Dus. Also it has a good aging quality, it's a name that can work with a character at any age. It isn't crazy unique but not overly common either which I like and I am sure others will too.
