What is the meaning of the name Chrysanthy ?

Chrysanthy is Greek in Origin.

From Greek Χρυσάνθη (Chrysánthi), Chrysanthy is the feminine counterpart of Χρύσανθος (Chrysánthos), built from chrysos “gold” and anthos “flower.” The sense is “golden flower,” the same elements that formed chrysánthemon, source of the English chrysanthemum. In Greek it has long conveyed brightness and grace through a floral image central to Hellenic symbolism.

Borne in Byzantine and modern Greek communities and marked in the Orthodox calendar near the feast of Saints Chrysanthus and Daria, the name persists in Greece and the diaspora. Common spellings and related forms include Chrysanthi (standard Greek), Chrysanthe/Chrysanthie/Chrysantha (Hellenized or English forms), and Romance-language Crisanta; the masculine relatives are Chrysánthos/Chrysanthus. Everyday short forms in Greek include Chrysa and Anthi. The English transliteration Chrysanthy captures the -th- sound of θ and is rare but unmistakably evocative, combining classic Greek heritage with a luminous botanical meaning.
