History & Origin

Christianne is a lengthened spelling of Christiane, the French feminine of Christian, from Latin christianus, 'follower of Christ'. It reads as a dressier cousin of the very common Christine, favoured by families who wanted a softer, continental sound.

It stayed uncommon, reaching a modest peak in the early nineteen-seventies as Christ- names flourished, then easing off. It reads as a later-twentieth-century spelling and is only lightly used today.

Did you know? Christianne is one of a large family of Christ- names, sitting alongside Christine, Christina and Christiane, each a slightly different spin on the same devotional root.
