Usage Old Celtic (Latinized)
Meaning & History
Latinized form of Drustan. It appears in a 6th-century tombstone inscription (“Drustanus lies here, the son of Cunomorus”) and many scholars have thought to identify Drustanus with the Tristan of Celtic legend. (On the other hand, other evidence suggests that Tristan is actually based on the 8th-century Drust, son of a Pictish king, and not this Drustanus.)
