An uncommon Latin pick — distinctive and rare.
Alternative spelling of Christie.
Cristi is a girl's baby name of Latin origin, a variant of Christie or Christy, diminutives of Christine, from the Latin Christianus, meaning 'follower of Christ.' The -i ending was a fashionable mid-century styling choice.
Cristi was used in mid-to-late 20th century America as a bright, compact variant of Christie. It has the same cheerful, open quality as Christie — a name that wears its Christian heritage lightly and warmly.
Cristi has 64+ years of history in the U.S., first appearing in 1948.
