My aunt’s name is Kirstyn. We have always said it “Kur-stin”. I would love to use it as a middle name someday. We have only called her Kir sometimes. My mom loved the name Kristin/Kristen, but it was too close to Kirstyn. Good thing my dad already had one he loved(Katherine). I find it funny how my grandfather named his older daughter Kirstyn, but if I ask him now, he says names C/Katherine and Anne.
I’m twelve, and there’s a Kristen a grade behind me. I think it’s totally usable. I honestly like Kirstyn the most, but I’m totally biased.
I love both names a lot.
