Kriston

Kriston is a given name, typically masculine, with origins in the English language. It is a variant of the name Christian, which derives from the Greek name Christos, meaning "anointed one." The name Kriston gained popularity in the latter half of the 20th century, particularly in English-speaking countries. While not as common as its root name, Christian, it has been used consistently. Notable individuals bearing the name Kriston are not widely recognized in mainstream history or popular culture, contributing to its relatively understated presence. The usage of Kriston is generally limited to personal naming choices, and it does not carry significant historical or cultural connotations beyond its Christian roots. Its pronunciation is typically KRIS-ton. The name's appeal may lie in its slight variation from the more common Christian, offering a subtle distinction.
