Dustin Meaning
From an English surname which was derived from the Old Norse given name Þórsteinn (see Torsten). The name was popularized by the actor Dustin Hoffman (1937-), who was apparently named after the earlier silent movie star Dustin Farnum (1874-1929). Dustin is related to the Norse given name “Dorsteinn”, itself derived from two words - “Thor”, the Norse god of thunder, and “steinn” which meant stone.
