The name Kristen which is quite popular in USA is swedish for christian and comes from Sweden. The swedish impact on USA is almost as great as Englands who named most towns and cities there.
England lost the battle but won the war and americans are all from somewhere else.
You need to dye your roots if what you need to do and that field in Ohio State wants it scare crow back ASAP so you better get a f***ing move on.
The lies that some tell and how the hell do you spell Kristen in hebrew and still get that prononcuation?
LOL
The name comes from christian swedes that moved to america.
DUH fool
So you say Kristen means christened
I'm not certain he existed but if there was a person called Jesus do you honestly believe he was called "Krist?" All you have to do is search and the names both go to Greek.

Given Name CHRISTOS
GENDER: Masculine
USAGE: Theology
OTHER SCRIPTS: Χριστος (Ancient Greek)
Meaning & History
Means "anointed", derived from Greek χριω (chrio) "to anoint". This was a name applied to Jesus by early Greek-speaking Christians. It is a translation of the Hebrew word מָשִׁיחַ (mashiyach), commonly spelled in English messiah, which also means "anointed".
And Christianity in Sweden has roots that I'm surprised someone proud of a Swedish heritage would want to claim, anyway.
1) I am saying that the name Christian is not an American version of the Swedish name Kristen.
2) I am saying that the name Kristen has roots in common with the name Christian.
3) I am saying that both come from Greek, and that the Greek comes from Hebrew.
While you could say that both Christian and Kristen are versions of each other neither is the origin, so it's misleading. It's completely false that the name Christian in the US comes from Swedish immigrants and the name Kristen. It's more that Kristen is the Nordic version of the Greek Christos.
I don't speak Hebrew or Greek so I'm not sure how a word that sounds like "messiah," מָשִׁיחַ (mashiyach ) "annointed" becomes a word χριω (chrio) "to anoint" except that it's not the sound but the meaning of the word that matters. The two cultures both developed the same concept but used different sounds for it.
OMGFor the life of me I cannot see City finishing this season without a trophy and so they really must beat Arsenal and Chelsea at Wembley or else it is failure on a scale we've never seen before in world football.
