Hello All,

Does anyone here know what the name Gusta means?
It is apparently a family name from my husbands side.
Let me know at your convenience.
Thank you!
...Avigayil.

Hi Avigayil, I searched google for your question and discovered that it is the female version of gustaaf. It's Dutch and means "staff of god". Check out these links that I found.

Hi Miriam,

Very interesting. It would make sense. This woman hailed from Russia, very close to Sweden.
Thanks for the research Miriam.
