Keresztették

Keresztették is a Hungarian given name, primarily for males, meaning "baptized" or "one who has been baptized." It is derived from the Hungarian word "kereszt," which means "cross," and also refers to the sacrament of baptism. The name carries strong religious connotations, signifying the initiation into Christianity.

The name Keresztették is not as commonly used today as it once might have been, reflecting broader trends in Hungarian naming practices which have seen a diversification of popular given names. While historically it might have been a more prevalent choice, particularly in communities with deep religious traditions, its usage has become less frequent in recent generations.

Variations or related names might exist within Hungarian nomenclature, though Keresztették itself is a distinct and recognizable form. The significance of the name is deeply tied to the historical and cultural importance of baptism within Hungarian society and its Christian heritage.
