Feminine use is documented in Byzantium and remains familiar in Greece today, aided by the cult of the early Christian martyr Chrysanthos, whose fame encouraged feminine counterparts and occasional name-day observance.

Variants include Chrysanthe, Chrysanthi, and the Latinate Chrysantha; across Romance languages it appears as Crisanta. Diminutives in Greek include Chrysa and Anthi. The K- opening in Krysanthe reflects contemporary international spelling preferences and can ease pronunciation outside Greece, while preserving the same meaning and heritage. Rare yet culturally grounded, Krysanthe offers a lyrical alternative to flower names like Rose or Daphne, balancing antique Greek roots with a crisp, modern silhouette.
