Kiersten

Kiersten is a modern English feminine name that arose as a spelling variant of Kirsten, itself the Scandinavian and Low German form of Christina. Christina derives from the Latin Christianus, meaning follower of Christ, which traces back to the Greek Christos, meaning anointed one. The altered spelling gives the name a more distinctive visual identity while preserving the same pronunciation. Related forms include Kirsten, Kristen, Kirstin, and Christine.
