I prefer this spelling to Kristina. I think the nn Christy is nice. I dislike Chris as a nn for Christina. In fact, I would prefer being called "Christina" instead of "Chris" or "Christy"

I love the name Christina, and definitely prefer this spelling to Kristina (though I also like Cristina). The nickname Christy is cute, though, personally, I just prefer Christina on its own without a NN. Chris is dnmsaa - too masculine imo.

I love it! I prefer Christina to Kristina as well - it just looks more complete to me. Ditto everything you said, actually.

I've never liked the feminine versions of 'Chris' names. Probably because of the *tina/*tine endings. They just sound ugly to me.

I always liked it.

In my opinion this name is far from dull. It's always reminded me of a happy person and it sounds so pleasant. I love the nn Christi / Christy.

I've never been a huge fan. It just seemed a bit bland to me, nothing special enough to really get into. It's kind of odd that it strikes me that way because I very much like Christopher and appreciate Christine. Christina doesn't appeal to me, though.

Christina is my mom's name.

So I like it by default, even if it's kind of dated. :D I think I might love Cristina more, though.

I don't really like any nicknames for Christina. I think it's fine on its own. (Incidentally, my mom goes by Kris--that spelling--but was called Tina up until her adolescence. In fact, I think the entire reason my grandparents named her Christina was so they could call her Tina. So much for that.)

It's not my thing (I prefer masculine versions of the name. Mostly Christophe), but at least it's something new. I don't know any Christina / Kristina / Christine / Kristine s that go by nicknames-- they all go by their full name.

Since it happens to be my name....
I really do love the name Christina. I hate being called Chris or Tina. Only a select few get to call me Christi (my parents). I prefer Christi to Christy.
