I'm sorry to anyone with loved ones affected by this post, but "Christin" is the most annoying spelling variation of that name.

Why name someone something they'll spend their life correcting? "No no, not Christian - Christin."

Responses:

One of my co-workers has this name. First time I've met someone with it. He said his parents meant to name him Tristin, but the hospital screwed up - Subversive May 29, 10:06
Yeah they all end up as Christy anyway. -- nm - Loyola May 29, 09:46
Wait. Christin = Christian? I figured Christin = Kristen. -- nm - ty97 May 29, 09:45 6
- i think it does but Max is saying that people called Christin are always going to be mistakenly called Christian. - Andie May 29, 09:48 3
  - ahh, ok. I don't love the spelling, but it really would baffle me if it was meant to be pronounced Christian -- nm - ty97 May 29, 09:48 2
    - It's not, but see the confusion it's causing? Parents, do not name your child Christin. If you have friends considering it, correct them quickly. -- nm - Max May 29, 09:50 1
      - There are also way too many Caiden, Caden, Aiden, Aden, Hayden, Haden, etc -- nm - ty97 May 29, 09:55
- You figured right, but every time everyone on my softball team sees it in print they think it's a typo. - Max May 29, 09:47
- Me too. -- nm - mara May 29, 09:46
