My name is Christian and hers is Kristina. Would be nice if you could write how to pronounce it too.

Very thankful for answers!
This is what the name "Christian" looks like in Katakana:


_KU_____RI____SU_______TI________AN

It is pronounced "KURISUTIAN". (Consonants are pronounced more or less the same way as in English. "A" sounds like a in father, but shorter. "I" sounds like ee in meet, but shorter. "U" sounds like oo in hook, but with less rounding of the lips.)

This is what the name "Kristina" looks like in Katakana:


_KU_____RI____SU_______TI______I_____NA

It is pronounced "KURISUTIINA". (Consonants are pronounced more or less the same way as in English. "A" sounds like a in father, but shorter. "I" sounds like ee in meet, but shorter. "U" sounds like oo in hook, but with less rounding of the lips. Double vowels like "II" are held for twice the duration of single vowels.)

Where the English characters appear below and in between 2 different katakana they are representing pronunciation for both.

ヨロシクね
