Gustav (name)
Gustav, also spelled Gustaf (pronounced or in English; for both spellings), is a male given name of Old Swedish origin, used mainly in Scandinavian countries, German-speaking countries, and the Low Countries. The origin of the name is debated. The name was first recorded in 1225 in Västergötland, Sweden, in the Latin form . Other 13th-century variants include ''Gødstaui'', ''Gøstaf'' and ''Gøzstaf'' . Linguistic Otto von Friesen suggested that it may derive from a byname meaning "staff of the Geats, Göta people" or "support of the (Väst)göta people".
