Augustus never was given the title "emperor". Emperor is a title historians give to the Roman leaders. The Romans themselves never used the title, they simply referred to the emperor as "Caesar". An example is The Twelve Caesars by Seutonius---not the Twelve Emperors.
No Roman ruler was ever called emperor. The word emperor is a word that we use, the Romans never used it. They referred to their "emperors" as Caesar. Caesar was originally a family name, but it grew into a title after the Julio-Claudian dynasty. The closest title to the term emperor was the military title of "imperator" which was given to a general by his troops after a victory. For clarity and based on common usage, it's true that "emperor" was not what is being asked. The first Roman emperor aka Imperator was Augustus Caesar. He won the Roman civil war against Mark Antony and Cleopatra. He was as Octavian the nephew of Julius Caesar.
