Etymology
Screat Auguster is an anglicisation of the archaic and official Dogric name Skríatt-av-Göster, which means "Screaming-of-Ghosts".

The village got its name from a local myth or belief which states that on stormy nights, especially with a strong westerly wind, one can stand on the bridge across the creek and hear the voices of the victims of drowning at sea screaming at you. The myth states that if you listen for too long a time, the sea will sweep you off the bridge and you will be doomed to scream at those standing on the bridge for eternity.

In 2013 it was voted "the most mystical placename in the Seafaring Confederation" in a contest held by the Seafaring Times.
