Keirstin
Keirstin Origin and Meaning
Keirstin is a feminine name that represents an alternative spelling of Kirsten or Kjersten, which are Scandinavian forms of Christina, ultimately derived from the Greek word meaning 'follower of Christ.' This variant spelling combines elements of both Kirsten and Kiersten, creating a distinctive option while maintaining the name's Nordic heritage. The name gained modest popularity in the United States during the 1980s and 1990s when Scandinavian names were trending. The spelling with 'ei' gives the name a slightly different visual appeal while preserving its traditional pronunciation. Keirstin carries the strength and heritage of its Scandinavian roots while offering a contemporary feel, appealing to parents seeking a name with cultural depth and a modern edge.
