What does Christopher mean?
CHRISTOPHERGender: MasculineUsage: EnglishPronounced: KRIS-to-furMeans "bearing Christ", derived from Late Greek Χριστος (Christos) combined with φερω (phero) "to bear, to carry".

Another famous bearer was Christopher Columbus, the explorer who reached what was believed as the Indies in the 15th century, but was actually the Bahamas.It is also clear that Greeks thought it was appropriate, being that CHRISTopher means to carry Christ, and the name carries Christ and the Saint indeed carried Jesus, or Christ, across a river.
