Detailed Slovak etymology analysis

Pôvod presnej podoby Kristán sa nepodarilo spoľahlivo overiť v odbornom onomastickom zdroji. Možná súvislosť s menom Kristián zostáva predpokladom. Kristián patrí do rodiny mien odvodených od latinského Christianus „kresťan“, so základom v gréckom Christos „pomazaný“. Tento výklad nemožno bez ďalšieho dokladu automaticky preniesť na Kristán.

Sources and scholarly methodology: Etymologické porovnanie: Behind the Name – Christian. Tento zdroj dokladá pôvod mena Christian, nie presnej podoby Kristán. Konkrétne heslo Kristán v publikácii Milana Majtána ani odborný výklad JÚĽŠ SAV sa nepodarilo overiť. Skloňovanie je odvodené zo slovenských gramatických pravidiel. Zdrobneniny a medzinárodné ekvivalenty zostali nevyplnené, pretože ich doloženie pre presnú podobu Kristán chýba.
