Kirstana is in Origin.

Kirstana is a rare modern elaboration of the Scandinavian and Scottish name cluster Kirsten/Kirstin, themselves vernacular forms of Christina. Through Christina it ultimately derives from Greek Christos, "anointed," yielding the meaning "follower of Christ" or "a Christian." The -ana ending reflects late-20th-century English-speaking trends that softened traditional names with lyrical, Latinate finales; as such, Kirstana appears in small numbers in Britain, North America, and Australia from that period onward, without a long-standing separate tradition.

Closely related forms include Kirsten (Danish/Norwegian), Kerstin (Swedish/German), Kirstin and Kirsty (Scottish), and the root names Kristina/Christina and Kristiana/Christiana. Near-variants and creative spellings such as Kirstanna or Kirstena occasionally occur. Nicknames may mirror its relatives, such as Kirsty, Kris, or Tina. In Gaelic contexts, the cognate line runs through Ciorstaidh (for Kirsty/Kirsten). Altogether, Kirstana blends heritage Christian-name meaning with contemporary style.
