Nothing wrong with that at all.

You might want to rethink the spelling though. Perhaps Krystaphry? Wink

Lovely

Sophronia · 06/12/2016 06:32

Love it

Not keen - old fashioned / 70s to me.

Married to one born in the 1950s. Mostly he's called Kit. Lovely name.

Very nice. Also lots of options for him to shorten it or have nicknames when older,is he wants to.

Lovely name.

I love it.

Lots of 1970s/1980s Christophers, but it is now relatively uncommon - and it feels like a lovely classic name rather than being dated.

I really like Kit as a nickname (also Christy but think I might be in a minority there).

Great name. Classic and "proper". There is one Christopher at my eldest's school, he calls himself Chris now that he's a cool teenager.

Joinourclub · 06/12/2016 07:56

I really like Kit

ChewedUpRope · 06/12/2016 09:57

I like Christopher too. Nn Chris. Classic, strong, can't go wrong.

AmyInTheBoonies · 06/12/2016 10:00

Dated at the moment, it needs another twenty years to sound charming again. It's a bit like Steven and Mark.

Christian is nice, though I can't decide if I would use it due to the religious connotations.

Jabuticaba · 06/12/2016 10:05

I love it, I think it is one of the nicer old names that will come back. Like George and Charlie.

HairsprayBabe · 06/12/2016 10:07

Lovely name, works well for a child and an adult!

Only the smartest, handsomest, kindest, most creative people are called Christopher!

I may be biased as DP is a Christopher!
