Meaning of Crista

Crista (pronounced KRIS-tuh) springs from the same Latin root as Christina—christus, meaning “anointed”—and carries a subtle sparkle of Spanish sunshine. She feels both classic and unexpected. With just two syllables, she rides the wave of history and faith, yet rolls off the tongue like a gentle summer breeze. Parents who choose Crista often imagine a daughter who stands on the crest of every new adventure, ready to outshine the piñata at any fiesta. It’s a name that whispers warmth, faith, and a dash of Latin flair, the perfect choice for a little girl eager to leave her mark.
