Chrisanthi is Greek in Origin.

Chrisanthi is the modern Greek feminine name Χρυσάνθη (Chrysanthi), built from chrysos "gold" and anthos "flower," yielding the radiant sense "golden flower" or "golden-blossomed." It is closely related to the botanical term chrysanthemum and pairs with the masculine Chrysanthos. Spelling without the initial h/y (Chrisanthi) reflects common transliteration choices from Greek.

Attested in Byzantine and later Christian usage, the name gained currency through the cult of the 3rd-century martyr Chrysanthos and remains familiar in Greece, Cyprus, and Hellenic diasporas. It saw renewed favor during the 19th-20th-century taste for nature and virtue names, and is honored in Orthodox calendars. Variants and equivalents include Chrysanthi, Chrysanthe, Chrisanthe, Hrisanthi, and Khrisanthi; the related masculine form is Chrysanthos/Chrysanthus. Common short forms are Chrysa, Anthi, and Santhi. The name carries bright, auspicious overtones in Greek, evoking preciousness and springtime bloom.
