Christopher is the English version of a Europe-wide name derived from the Greek name Χριστόφορος (Christóforos). The constituent parts are Χριστός (Christós), “Christ” or “Anointed”, and φέρειν (férein), “bear”: the “Christ-bearer”. (Note φέρειν is not a native Greek word — it comes from the Latin verb fere with the meaning listed above. This verb also shows up in the English word Lucifer, “Light bearer” — literally “he bears light”.) Christopher is related to the names Chris meaning “Anointed” and christop meaning “follower of Christ” or “little Christ”
As a given, or first name, Christopher has been in use since the 10th century.
In English, Christopher may be abbreviated as “Chris”, and sometimes “Kit”. Another less common abbreviation is “Topher” or “Toph”.
