Krisy is of American origin, derived from the Greek name Christopher. It means "bearer of Christ". The name gained popularity in the United States during the mid-20th century and has since been used consistently. Krisy is a short form of Kristine or Christine, often preferred for its uniqueness and simplicity. It typically suits individuals born around late October to early November, as it's a popular choice among parents who welcome their babies during these autumn months. Krisy is also sometimes considered a unisex name, although it's more commonly associated with females in the U.S.
The name Krisy experienced its peak popularity between 1977 and 1979 with 10, 16, and 12 births respectively. However, it seems to have declined steadily since then, with fewer than 8 births each year from 1980 onwards.
