Meaning and history

Faustine is the French feminine form of Faustinus, a Roman name derived from Faustus, meaning “fortunate,” “lucky,” or “auspicious” in Latin. Several early Christian saints bore related forms, and the name also recalls Roman empresses named Faustina. Faustine is established in French-speaking countries. Notable bearers include French windsurfer and Olympic gold medallist Faustine Merret and French singer Faustine Nogherotto. Its meaning reflects good fortune rather than the unrelated Faust legend.
