History & Origin

Chrisann welds Chris, from Christine, to Ann, from the Hebrew for 'grace'. Such fused compounds, written solid, were a fashionable way for mid-century parents to honor two names at once.

Chrisann stayed uncommon, given to only a couple dozen girls a year around its mid-century high and never widespread. A Chrisann from then would be a grandmother now, and the name carries the tidy, doubled charm of its era's blends.

Did you know? Chrisann is two names in one, pairing the 'anointed' of Christine with the 'grace' of Ann.
