Cristofer

Cristofer is a variant spelling of the given name Christopher. It is a less common spelling compared to the more widely used "Christopher." The name Christopher is of Greek origin, derived from Χριστόφορος (Christóphoros), meaning "Christ-bearer." The name gained popularity due to Saint Christopher, a Christian martyr. While "Christopher" remains the dominant spelling, "Cristofer" serves as an alternative, often chosen for stylistic or personal reasons. The pronunciation is generally the same as "Christopher," with emphasis on the first syllable. Use of the "Cristofer" spelling can be observed across various cultures and languages where the name is adopted.
