In English, yes, definitely male. In French, definitely female.
I prefer it to August; I don't enjoy month names in general. But it is strongly associated with early Christianity and therefore Catholicism, which probably limits its usage. If I were to use it, it would be strictly a middle name.
As a Dylan fan, I found this reference interesting: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_Dreamed_I_Saw_St._Augustine
