I voted for "change the spelling" - Keirstin - switch the e & i at the beginning

Hmmm, well I'm sort of partial to it, because that's my name, but I spell it Kirstin. For short, my friends call me Kiri or Kir.

Kirstin is Scottish version of Christina and Kiersten is Danish and they are not pronounced the same way.


Kerstin is the Swedish version of Christina and it is pronounced

I'm thinking with spelling it's just between Kierstin and Keirstin? I want it pronounced KEER-stin. Any other suggestions?

THANKS SO MUCH!

I know a little girl with that name and it's spelled Kiersten. I think it's very pretty! :)

I know a Kierstyn and a Kjersten. The most popular spelling in the US is Kiersten. PLEASE DO NOT spell it Kei... because that just makes no sense!!! It is a cute name!

I am not sure why some posters are suggestioning you spell it Kirsten, that is a different name then what you are going for. Kierstin is KEER-STEN while Kirstin is KER-STEN.

Thank you! Yes, I am definitely going for KEER-STEN. :-) Thank you to everyone for their suggestions. I can't decide between Kierstin, Kiersten, Keirstin and Keirsten. I am leaning towards one of the first two. THANK YOU!

Cheers,
Julie
