Kristjan

Kristjan is the Estonian, Slovene, and Icelandic form of Christian, ultimately derived from the Latin Christianus, meaning follower of Christ, which itself traces back to the Greek Christos, meaning anointed. The name spread widely across Europe through the influence of Christianity and was borne by numerous Scandinavian and Central European rulers and clergy. Related forms include Christian, Kristian, Carsten, and Christen.
