Kersti

Kersti is a Scandinavian and Estonian feminine name, a diminutive form of Kerstin, itself the Swedish and Estonian adaptation of Christina. Christina derives from Latin Christianus, meaning follower of Christ, which traces back to Greek Christos, the anointed one. The name has been in steady use in Sweden and Estonia for centuries, carried by the broader Christian naming tradition of northern Europe. Related forms include Kerstin, Kristiina, and Kirsten.
