This name is sort of creepy like Corpus Christi (body of Christ, Jesus being executed). Especially if you named your daughter this and she was born at Easter.
Christie Brinkley is an American model and actress. Brinkley gained worldwide fame beginning in the late 1970s with three consecutive Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue covers through 1981. She spent twenty five years as the face of CoverGirl, has appeared on over 500 magazine covers, and has signed contracts with major brands—both fashion and non-fashion.
It's my name and it's always mutilated. It's CHRISTIE, not Christy, Kristi, Cristy, Kristee, or Chrissy! The original spelling is the least trashy and chav-like, I think.

It sounds bitchy and takes away the beauty from the name Christina, not to mention I think of the irritating Christie Brinkley.
It sounds prettier than the overused, annoying Chris and the immature-sounding Chrissie, but I can't say I like this name either. It's still quite cutesy and too common.
