Kiersten

Kiersten is an English spelling variant of Kirsten, itself the Scandinavian and Low German form of Christina, which derives from the Latin Christianus meaning follower of Christ, ultimately rooted in the Greek Christos, the anointed one. The name became widely used in English-speaking countries during the twentieth century, partly through Scandinavian influence and the popularity of similar-sounding names. Closely related forms include Kirsten, Kjersten, Kristen, Kristin, and Christina.
