What does the name Ashtin mean?
Ashtin is a spelling of Ashton, pronounced the same way, so it shares Ashton's meaning and origin.
Ashton is a common English place name joining Old English aesc, 'ash tree', and tun, 'farmstead, settlement', so 'farm by the ash trees'. It became a surname and then a first name. Wikipedia notes that Ashton was used more for American girls in the late 1980s and 1990s, after a character in the 1985 miniseries North and South, and that the actor Ashton Kutcher later boosted it for boys.
