No contest there.

Krista

I think Krista is prettier than Greta but I’m not crazy about either name.

Krista, hands down.

Greta

If I had to: Krista

---

But only because I really dislike Greta. I used to like Kristy but I don't care for it now. I don't exactly like Krista either, but I prefer it to Greta.

Huh

Well I love Crystal, and Krista is quite similar, but it does not have the association (crystal ball; gemstones; ice etc). It's also related to Christine > Christian and therefore is associated with Christian / Catholic religion which I have a preference of avoiding.

Greta is actually rather charming now. Sounds dated but in that 1920s flapper / early cinema way which I've grown to enjoy. It's from Margaret, meaning "pearl". I don't like the name Margaret, but I think Greta is one of the best names to derive from it, along with Maggie, but unlike Maggie, Greta can be used as a full name.

So I choose Greta :)

I quite like Greta, and far prefer it to Krista, which would be better if the K were Ch or C, but not good enough. Greta has a history and isn't a spelling variation.

I like them both,hard to choose, maybe Greta
