The name Kyrsten

Does anyone happen to know if it has meaning? I've heard it was Scandinavian, but I believe that's pronounced "KER-stin", and mine is "KYEER-stin". Or maybe I'm dismally confused. But does anyone know?

The Swedish name Kerstin [CHESH-tin] was originally a nn for Kristina. Kyrsten is simply a variant! :)

It could also be (more likely imo) . . .

A variant of Kirsten / Kirstin, the Scottish forms of Christine.
