Kirstine is a Danish feminine form of Christina, itself derived from the Latin Christianus, meaning follower of Christ, which traces back to the Greek Christos, meaning anointed one. The name has been in steady use in Scandinavia for centuries, carried by ordinary women and occasionally by figures in Danish literature and public life. Closely related forms include Kirsten, Kristine, and Christine, all sharing the same Latin and Greek roots.
