History & Origin

Krisann is a compound name pairing Kris, short for Kristin or Christine, with Ann. The Kris element traces to the Greek for follower of Christ, while Ann comes from Hebrew Hannah, grace. The K spelling and the Ann tag both point to its mid-century American origin.

It was never common, given to only a couple dozen girls a year at its mid-1960s peak, with a thin scatter for decades after. A Krisann from that time is in her early sixties now; the Ann compound reads as of its era rather than reviving.

Did you know? Krisann is a mid-century Ann compound with a modern K, built the same way as Maryann and Roseann but on the newly fashionable Kris.
