The village was formed in 1921 as the village of Hnativka (Ukrainian: Гнатівка); in 1929 it was renamed to Avhustynivka,[2] after 153 families were resettled to the village after the fooding of the village of Avhustynivka following the creation of the Dnieper Hydroelectric Station. The original village of Avhustynivka was founded in 1780.[3]
