Khrustina is Greek in Origin.

Khrustina is an Eastern Slavic–leaning spelling of the pan-European name Christina, the feminine form of Latin Christianus ("a Christian; follower of Christ"), ultimately from Greek Christos ("anointed"). In Cyrillic languages the base form is Христина; it appears as Khristina in Russian and Bulgarian, Khrystyna in Ukrainian, and Khrystsina in Belarusian. Khrustina surfaces as a rare transliteration or creative hybrid influenced by these systems and is mostly encountered in Slavic diaspora records.

The broader name family gained currency with early Christian martyrs venerated across East and West, notably Saint Christina of Bolsena/Tyre, and later figures such as Christina the Astonishing, keeping the name popular in medieval and modern Europe. Variants include Christina, Cristina, Kristina, Krystyna, Hristina, Khristina, Khrystyna, and Khrystsina; diminutives and nicknames range from Tina and Kris to Khrystia in Ukrainian. Meaning centers on "a Christian; one anointed," lending the name a devotional, timeless character.
