History & Origin

Kyrstal rode the popularity of Crystal and Krystal, gem names that peaked for American girls in the nineteen-eighties. This spelling stayed rare, jumbling the letters of the first syllable, and reached a modest high in the mid nineteen-eighties.

It was never common on its own, given to only about twenty girls a year at its peak, since most families chose Crystal or Krystal. A girl spelled Kyrstal at that high would be about forty today, squarely in the peak Crystal generation. The unusual spelling now dates her fairly precisely.

Did you know? The word crystal comes from a Greek term for ice, since the ancients believed clear quartz was water frozen so hard it would never thaw, a chilly image behind a sparkling name.
