Hi! Can anyone please translate my middle name into katakana? It's "Christine" and I've tried to do it but I don't think it's correct.

Thanks

Uh, I can sound it out for you, then you've got to find the appropriate characters, as I'm too lazy too.

Ku ri su chi-n
- is an extension. I think that's right.

If it is French's name, it is "クリスティーヌ".
 フランス人の名前なら「クリスティーヌ」。

If it is German's name, it is "クリスティーネ".
 ドイツ人の名前なら「クリスティーネ」。

If it is Britain-U.S. people's name, it is "クリスティーン" or "クリスティン".
 イギリス人・アメリカ人の名前なら「クリスティーン」または「クリスティン」です。


...It is likely to be distinguished like this.
 ……このように区別されることが多いみたいです。
