I like Augusta and Augustina the best for a girl. I think they sound rather classy. I prefer August for boys.

I really like Augusta on a girl. I think Augustine and Augustina are lovely as well, but not as great. Auguste and August are masculine to me but, they are good on males, especially August!

I like it for a middle name, and I would probably be quite pleased to meet a little Augusta. In fact, I know I would be.

My great-great-grandmother was named Alice Augusta, which I have always thought to exude class and good taste.

I like Augusta the best for a girl. It sounds strong yet feminine. I think August is fine for a girl, but some people might assume that she's male by just looking at her name since the majority of people named August are male.

It sounds a little heavy and old to me. The pronunciation doesn't sound great to me.
Out of all the ones you mentioned, I prefer August.

i really like Augusta, Augustine, and August (though i think of August as more of a boy's name)

I like August and Augustine. I don't mind Augustina, it's just kind of a mouthful and would definitely need a nickname.

August or Augusta.

I prefer August or Auguste.

I don't like -ina or -ine ending very much on most names.

I don't like how Augusta looks or sounds as much as the others.
It is also the name of a town near where I live.

Augustina, followed by Augusta. I love both of them. The other three seem very masculine to me.
