Today, it is still a relatively uncommon name but can be found in various French-speaking countries and communities around the world.

However, its religious origins and meaning have made it appealing to parents who wish to give their daughters a name that reflects their faith or cultural heritage. In terms of pronunciation, Christienne is typically pronounced as /krɪs.tjɛn/. It rhymes with the English word "Christine" but with an added "ne" sound at the end.
