Meaning & origin

Christohper is an unusual and rare spelling variant of the classic name Christopher. First recorded in the United States in 1966, this name reached its peak usage in 1983, with very few births even then. The trajectory of Christohper has remained stable but at an extremely low frequency; data for 2025 shows it still in use, though without a measurable rank or 1-in-N rate. The name is not associated with any particular state, and it is almost certainly a misspelling or creative variation rather than an established form. Parents who choose Christohper likely seek a distinctive take on Christopher while retaining its familiar sound.

Christohper appears to be a variant or misspelling of Christopher, a name derived from the Greek Christophoros, meaning 'bearer of Christ.' It was first recorded in the United States in 1966. The name is exceedingly rare and not standard, so its usage is likely due to spelling errors rather than established tradition.
