Created by author H. P. Lovecraft for a gigantic, horrible, octopus-like god, first introduced in the short story The Call of Cthulhu (1926). Lovecraft may have based the name on the word chthonic meaning “under the earth, subterranean”, a derivative of Greek χθών (chthon) meaning “earth, ground, soil”.
People with the name Christien have a deep inner desire for travel and adventure, and want to set their own pace in life without being governed by tradition.
