My name is Christiane and while it is challenging sometimes to have a unique name, more often than not people tell me how beautiful it is and how interesting. I do spend a lot of time correcting people and explaining what the origin of the name is, but I don't mind. I feel like the name fits me well.

I'm from the US, but I would consider naming my daughter Christiane. In honor of Christiane F. Of course.

I've always heard it pronounced "Kris-tee-ON". I know someone with this name, and it REALLY buggs her when people say "Kris-tee-ON-ah" or "Kris-tee-ANN."
