Christop!
A number of irreverent suggestions will be suppressed ... however, it does also suggest to me that ordinary people with big handwriting couldn't fit Christopher into a line or box on the forms, so did the best they could. Is there anything similar for other long names like Elizabeth? And did the format of the forms perhaps change, and then change back? Because I can't imagine how people in the 90s would have bigger handwriting than folks in other decades.

That's exactly it, the same thing happens for Elizabeth.
