Comments for the name Christina

The name Christina also means 'beautiful'. It is a holy name becuase it comes from Saint Christina. People who own this name are very creative, sometimes bossy, and are good leaders. They are hard workers, and are sometimes perfectionists. All in all this name goes out to good people.

Christina doesn't mean "beautiful" and you can't say a Christina has a special personality. I've known a snobbish, mean Christina and a sweet, intelligent Christina.

I agree with "christinaiscool". I am a Christina and most Christinas that I know fit that description, especially with creativity. I have also read the meaning of Christina is "flower of Christ". Which is ironic, since I was born on Devil's Night. As for nicknames, I go by Chrissy.

My name is Christina and I'm not so fond of my it. It's too popular for my liking. I know at least 4 other Christinas and it gets annoying when I think people are yelling out MY name to somebody else.

A famous bearer is princess Christina of the Netherlands. She is the youngest sister of queen Beatrix of the Netherlands.

Christina is a pretty name, but it's gotten too popular. And it means "Christian", which in turn means "Devotee of Christ"; there's many Christinas who are not deeply devoted to him.

I dont like it. Too overly used. I keep getting called Christina because my name is Christine. That's how overly used it is.

My name is Christina and my birthday is July 24. This is kinda odd because July 24 is the Greek date for the name Christina. Also my son (Rene) happens to have his name fall on the Polish day for it!

Actresses Christina Ricci and Christina Applegate are two famous bearers.

Greek name meaning 'follower of Christ'.

A famous bearer is Christina Aguilera.

My name is Christina and I love it. I am deeply a believer in the lord and I will agree that it is very popular but to the girl who said Christina was overused just because people mess her name up which is Christine and call her Christina. Well people call me Christine all the time and it bugs me. They also call me Tina, Chris, Chrisa, Christa, Krissy but that's just because it's similar. So get over it. God bless you.

I love the name Christina. It can mean either "little Christ" or "Christ bearer." I hope that my life lives up to my name.

Personally I think Christina is a beautiful, sophisticated name.

My name is Christina, but I live in Norway so there aren't very many people here with the same name as me. I'm not Christian, so when I read 'christinaiscool's comment I felt glad, and I hope it's true. People who comment my name always says they think it's special and it's pretty, which I think too!

I am a Christina, and funnily enough I'm an atheist. Haha.

Listen to the German pronunciation of Christina here:

Christina Scabbia is the lead singer of the band Lacuna Coil.

I think this name has been overused. It's a good name but I don't have feelings for it.

I am a Christina from Hong Kong. So far I have only known 2 Christinas, including me. But THAT Christina is in the same class with me. I think Christina is a gorgeous name. However I think this is relatively long. Anyway I LOVE MY NAME!

This was what my mom wanted to name me, but my dad said no. It is kind of too bad because my birthday is July 24, and that is one of the namedays for Christina. I really like this name; I used it for someone in one of the books I am writing.

Christina I think sounds rather cold, but it's nice.
It's my middle name and women on my mother's have had this name ever since my great great great grandmother changed her name from Saga to Christina. The weird thing is that on my father's side most of the women are named Christina too. Sadly I think I'll be the first one to break the tradidtion, I'm not sure yet.

This is my name and I think it fabulous! The only thing I hate is that it's so long. 9 letters. I've always had the longest name in my class. I think it's a great name, but it might be too common. I know 5 other Christina's.

I've always thought this was a good name, but it kind of loses points for me - it's my middle name! My name is Natasha Christina (boo for my Slav heritage), and I think that sounds very odd and far too long. It would be nice paired with a shorter/simpler name.

This is much prettier than Kristina!

I really like this name. It's my friend's name, and we call her Nina for short! And my friend looks excatly how I would imagine a Christina: Long, wavy dark, hair, tall, brown eyes, pretty.

Actually, the queen of Sweden's name was spelled Kristina.

I think that I really would have loved this name much more had it not been so nauseatingly popular. I have met at least fifty Christinas in my life. It's a pretty name, but FAR too overused.

My name, but I prefer Christy. I'm not fond of being called "Chris" mainly because my mother disliked that variant.

I'm not crazy of my own name but I seriously can't imagine it in any other way. I've had this name my entire life.

Some friends of mine who are Nichiren Shoshu Buddhists named their daughter Christina, which is kind of a weird disconnect, if you ask me.

I'm named Christina, and I get called Chris, Tina, and Chrissy. What's really annoying is the fact that people often call me Christine; I've even had Christine printed on name tags for certain events. Very frustrating. I agree that Christina is kind of overused. But often people named Christina are regularly called by a nickname. I like the meaning of the name, and try to live up to it!

I know very few Christinas. It's probably not as common in the area where I live.

My name is Christina I love this name. My mother says I don't look like a Christina but I act like one. I don't know if that's a bad thing or a good thing yet. Lol. Anyway I agree with most of you but I am a follower of Christ and I love music and art so I don't know, you tell me if I'm a Christina. I have had people call me all the way from Katrine to Chrissy. I didn't even know my name was Christina till I was 10. I thought it was Tina.

I'm an Christina. But I often go by Christy, which I perfer by FAR. I've gone from hating my name to liking it okay. But I recommend Christine if you're considering this name. By the way, if you're named this, NEVER let anyone call you Chris. I have a cousin named Christopher who goes by "Chris" and a grandma (which is both of ours) who insists on calling me Chris. It's a big pain for both of us.

This is a pretty bland name, too common and absolutely overused. I hate the nickname Chris and think the nickname Tina is much better. The good thing is that the name can't possibly lead to discrimination, as it isn't trashy or immature, but gosh, how boring it is.

Maria Christina von Habsburg-Lothringen bore this name. She was the favourite daughter of the empress Maria Theresa von Habsburg-Lothringen of Austria-Hungary and was born on her mother's birthday as well.

Christina is my name and I love it! I think it's a very pretty name and other people tell me that too. It's really cool that I have all the characteristics of my name that are in 'christinaiscool's comment. Lolz. But there are some things I hate about it.
1. It's wayyy too long! wow! 9 letters!
2. Too overused. I know like 3 other Christina's
3. My history teacher used to call me Christine for a long time and it was really annoying
4. People always spell Christina wrong! I don't understand why they cant spell it! It's Chris and Tina combined! Very simple lolz!
5. The fact that my name is all about religion. I'm Catholic and I don't even believe in god.

I too, am a Christina, and I've got two nicknames that I like: Stina, and Nina. Christina is a lot less popular now than it was in the 70's and 80's; I doubt my daughter will have any friends named Christina.

I like the name Christina but there are too many in my family so I'd never use it. To me, the name is super popular. I think it's pretty but don't like the way it gets butchered. The various nicknames 'Chris', 'Christy', 'Chrissy', 'Tina', etc. I don't like at all.

I personally don't like the name. But that is just me. Don't get me wrong. But it sounds too girly for my taste. I am more of a tom-boy.

I love this name, it's old fashioned but not as old as some of the other names, yet innocent and sweet. It also reminds me of "Christina Aguilera".

Actor Telly Savalas and Katherine Nicolaides have a daughter Christina Savalas.

Being a Christina myself, I gotta say that it is indeed boring, and the religious aspect of it puts me, and many others with my name, off to it. On the bright side you don't have to worry about people mispronouncing it or discriminating against it. Just constantly spelling it wrong and shortening it, I've grown to loath the names Chris, Chrissy, Christine, Kristen and Kristy. It's also a little annoying always absent mindedly spelling my name when I'm trying to spell Christmas, or being constantly referred to as Christina Aguilera, as if I would find that clever or flattering. Overall, if you're going to go with a classic name I think Christina is a really nice one, it's just really common. I think non Christinas like it more.

My sister and her husband want to name their first daughter Christina. I think it's a beautiful name.

A famous bearer is British-born American actress Christina Pickles (born February 17, 1935). She is best known for her various television roles, including Helen Rosenthal on "St. Elsewhere", and Judy Geller on "Friends".

I love this name because of the beautiful singer Christina Aguilera. However, it's very common, and all the nicknames are ugly.

This is my name too!
Like another "Christina" on here, I too, was not aware of my name till an older age. I too, thought my name was "Tina" and I never like the name "Tina". I found out when I was entering kindergarten! Now, I go by my full name and love it. It was a name that took growing into. It is a bit of a mouth-full, but I deserve every one of those syllables!

Christina DeCicco is an American stage actress. She's best known for performing in the musical Wicked as Glinda in the first national touring production from January through November 2007. She also performed as Cindy Lou in the off-Broadway musical "The Marvelous Wonderettes" from June 2008 through January 2009. Regionally, she's well-known for roles in musicals like "Les Miserables" and "Beauty and the Beast".

A Dutch abbreviation of Christina (and Justina, etc) is Tineke, pronounced TEE-ne-ke.

This is my name. I don't really like it. It's boring and unoriginal. I mean, she was going to name me Arianna. That's 100x more original than this overused and played out name!

The good thing about it is that it'll age well, sounds fairly pleasant, and will look good on a resume, unlike "Brooklynne" or "Muhkaela".

Rhymes with Pristina, the capital of Kosovo.

Two amazing actresses, Christina Applegate and Christina Pickles, bear this name, as well as pop singer Christina Aguilera.

Christina Rossetti was an English poet, in the 1800s. Her eldest brother was painter, Dante Gabriel Rossetti. Christina Rossetti wrote poems such as "Goblin Market", "Maude Clare" and "Cousin Kate." Her poems tended to look upon women in society, with themes such a love and religion.

Christina is my middle name and I love it! My first name and my middle name (Grace Christina) together sound elegant and beautiful and strong. My great grandma was named Christina (who I'm named after) who was all of these things:) xoxo

I am, yet another, Christina. I've only known one other Christina, but she's always called Christina and I'm mostly Christie but sometimes Christina. It isn't a burden having a popularish name, in fact I love it when I meet other Christinas and I'm like "THAT'S MY NAME TOO! WOW..." I like my name, but I hate the short form Tina. It sounds like a stripper to me for some reason. More specifically, one in high heels and hot-pink fake nails. But Christie/Christina is wayyy better. Christina is, to me, THE girl name. It can be girly, it can be tomboyish, it can sound professional or personal, fun or serious. Kind of like Alexandria. Oh yeah, I'm Christian, so I like how my name means a Christian. It sort of reminds me to be faithful. Haha I just plain like my name. It's so perfect for me.

A famous bearer is actress Christina Hendricks. She plays Joan on the TV series Mad Men.

I am also a Christina. I really like my name. My mom wanted to name me Tiffany and my dad wanted to name me Christina. I'm so glad that my dad got his way. I also get the Christine thing and the people who can't spell it, and it's not because they don't know what letter it starts with! But honestly I like my name and I can't think of anything else I'd want to be named.
