History & Origin

Kristinia is a lengthened Kristina, itself a form of Christina from the Greek for 'a Christian.' The added ending is a modern American touch, and the name carries the same devout meaning as its parent.

It was never common, given to only about fifteen girls a year even at its peak in the early nineteen-seventies. A girl named Kristinia then is in her mid-fifties today, an ornate variant of the era's popular Kristina.

Did you know? The extra -ia ending gives the familiar Kristina a longer, more ornate flow without changing its meaning.
