Is Khristine a boy’s or a girl’s name?
Khristine has been recorded only for girls: SSA lists no boys with the name in 53 years of records (it lists a name only in years with 5 or more babies of a sex).
Girls and boys named Khristine: the SSA national file counts each sex separately.
How many people are named Khristine, and how old are they?
An estimated 571 Americans named Khristine and born in the U.S. are alive in 2026 (92% of everyone recorded); the median is 51 years old and half are between 38 and 58. An estimate from SSA’s births and life tables, not a count.
The 2020 Census counted 781 people named Khristine (775 women and girls, 6 men and boys). SSA’s births carried forward to Census day, April 1, 2020, predict 585 born in the U.S. The Census count is 34% above that prediction. Possible reasons: the Census counts people born abroad, whom SSA’s files leave out, and it records the name people give, which SSA may have recorded under another spelling or as part of a compound name.
Living estimate: SSA births carried forward with the survival rates in SSA’s cohort life tables (2024 Trustees Report) for each birth year and sex. How the estimate is made. Count: Census Bureau, first names in the 2020 Census (released April 14, 2026; names reported 100 or more times, with the Bureau’s disclosure-avoidance adjustment).
