That's my name
written by Jkirsten, February 09, 2008
I love my name. I think it is pretty and elegant and I get compliments on it all the time. Although sometimes people take a glance at my name and think it's Kristin but then I correct them. I say Kiiirrrsten like when you say ear.

Mine's pronounced the same way as kirsten dunst and i love it! Through school everyone called me kristin. I always had to correct them. "sorry my name's not kristin or kiersten, it's said Kuursten, thank you." I love my name so much though :)

I get called Kirstie, which I prefer. When I was little I hated my name, I wanted something that wasn't shortened to the word "cursed" In new zealand that's how the first syllable is pronounced.
