Krystine is a modern English respelling of Kristine/Christine, the feminine form of Christian.

The Christine/Christina family spread widely across medieval Europe through veneration of saints named Christina and later notables such as Queen Christina of Sweden. In English-speaking countries, Christine and Christina peaked in the mid-to-late 20th century; Krystine emerged as a rare, stylistic variant, most visible in the 1980s-1990s.
