Full name for Rusty?

NinjaNic

Just wondered...

Is there a full name for Rusty or does it stand on it's own?

I've heard it as a nn for Russell.

This.

It can also stand alone, but if I were considering it as a name, I would go with Russell so the boy had a formal name.

Also, I think it is one of those nn that comes about due to red hair or some other particular thing about a person.

My mom's dog is named Rusty (he's a reddish/brown cocker spaniel)...so I would never consider it for a child.

The only Rusty I've known is a cute little redheaded boy It suits him so well!

The only thing I have heard of is Russell for a full name too.

My uncle is a Rusty and it suits him perfectly.  

In his case it's short for Romeyn (pronounced like the lettuce Romaine)

I thought it was a nn for red heads, not for a particular name.
