We call my uncle this, but it's spelled Chrisie. It's short for Christopher. And no, he's not gay. People think that because Chrisie is a girlish name.

Uck, I HATE this name! My name is Christina, (I prefer Christy) and people will call me Chrissy. I usually scream and freak out when this happens. Why? Reminds me of the word word "prissy" and Suzanne Sommers ditzy character in Three's Company.

The nickname is far too immature and cutesy, but I don't find it cute at all. Since the name rhymes with the adjectives 'pissy' and 'prissy', the name just isn't as safe as it would have been a decade ago.
My sister's name is Chrissy and it is just the most wonderful name anyone has ever known! Her real name is Christianna my mom and dad named her this because they love the name Chrissy and Anna was my mom's grandma's name.
