The popularity of
Krishna, as a female name, is because of
Krishna Navas de Caso (her stage name is
Krishna de Caso), a very popular Chilean journalist and writer. Her sister is the actress and painter Yuyuniz de Castro and she is daugther of the painter
Reynaldo Navas and the TV hostess
Eliana de Caso.
Since it ends in -A, in Spanish the name is perceived as feminine and it sounds as a modern variant of
Cristina, even if both names are not related at all. A lot of people who are using the name don't even know that it is a deity name.
