History & Origin
Ustin is a Russian and eastern European name in the Justin and Justus family, from the Latin iustus, 'just' or 'righteous.' In American records it can also look like a J-less spelling of Justin, and which route a family followed is not always clear, though the underlying meaning stays 'just.'
The name stayed rare, appearing briefly around 1988, when it peaked with only about twenty boys a year. A boy named Ustin then is in his late thirties today; the name is far more established in Russian tradition than in the United States.
