History & Origin

Crystol is a spelling variant of Crystal, the gem name from Greek 'krystallos,' clear ice. Crystal surged in the 1980s, and parents produced a run of alternate spellings; the -ol ending of Crystol is one such personalization while the meaning stays the sparkling original.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year at its early-1980s peak and gone by the late 1980s. A Crystol from that time is in her forties now; the name is tied firmly to its 1980s moment rather than reviving.

Did you know? Crystol is one of many inventive Crystal spellings from the gem-name boom of the 1980s, sitting beside Krystal and Chrystal.
