Austine Name Meaning, Origin and Heraldry

The spelling Austine grew out of Austin, an English surname with a long paper trail. Austine adds “e” to Austin, a small change that crept in as the name was written down. It grew out of a personal name: “From Augustine”.

Other spellings include Austen and Augustin.

A coat of arms belongs to a particular family line rather than to everyone named Austine, so the heraldry linked to Austin is a starting point, not an automatic right. Want more than a summary? See the Austine family name pack.
