Kristoffer Origin and Meaning

The name Kristoffer is a boy's name of Scandinavian origin meaning "bearer of Christ".

This Scandinavian spin on Christopher gives that enduring classic a lighter, more individual twist, though many may see it as simply a kree8iv spelling.

Not true: It has authentic roots as a variation of the original. And short form Kris couldn't be simpler or more straightforward, though the K spelling also leads directly to Kit or Kip.
