Origin and meaning of Cristina

Cristina comes from the Christian Latin Christiana, 'follower of Christ, Christian,' itself from the Greek Christós, 'the anointed one.' Common in Italy, Spain, Portugal, Romania and Latin America, it is a name of classic, devotional charm. Made illustrious by Queen Christina of Sweden, a learned sovereign and patron of the arts, it blends elegance and character. With a clear sound recognisable across many languages — Christine, Kristina, Christina — it remains a beloved, timeless choice.
