Hristijan

Hristijan is a Macedonian masculine given name derived from the Greek Christianos, itself from Christos, meaning anointed one, which traces back to a Greek translation of the Hebrew mashiach. The name entered Slavic languages through the spread of Christianity and developed distinct regional forms across the Balkans. Closely related forms include the Bulgarian Hristiyan, the Serbian Hrišćanin, and the more internationally widespread Christian and Kristijan.
