Khrystey is Greek, Slavic in Origin.

Khrystey is a rare modern feminine given name within the Christina/Christine family. Its root traces to Greek Christos, "anointed," transmitted via Latin Christianus and widespread in Europe. The initial Kh reflects East Slavic transliteration of the Cyrillic Kh sound (Х), as in Ukrainian forms Khrystyna and the diminutive Khrystia, while the -ey ending is an English phonetic or diminutive spelling. The result is a cross-cultural hybrid that preserves a Ukrainian sound yet reads smoothly in English.

Usage appears sporadically from the late twentieth century onward, particularly among the Ukrainian diaspora and in English-speaking countries; it may stand alone or serve as a nickname for Khrystyna or Christina. Documented variants include Khrystie, Khrysty, Khrysti, Khrystia, and Khrystyna; related international forms are Christy, Christie, Chrystie, Kristy, Krysti, Kristina, Christina, and Christine. The core meaning remains "anointed," often interpreted as "follower of Christ," and name-day associations typically follow those for St. Christina/Christine.
