A female name common in Europe, especially Germany.
It is a variant of "Christian" and means "follower of Christ."
The correct pronunciation of name is "Christy-AH-neh." When a German word ends in the letter "e", it makes a "eh" or "ah" sound. Yes, I agree, it is very frustrating having this name in the US because it is always mispronounced.
Christiane Amanpour is a famous news correspondent for CNN. She, however, pronounces her first name "Christy-ahn."

During his life Jesus teached, told parables, performed miracles,etc. Some people started to follow him and then crowds followed him. Then they started to call him Messiah and then other people got angry. Even though Jesus never did anything wrong people still hated him. They thought he wanted to become king. Then they planned to kill him. Over the time of Jesus's live he gathered 12 people and called him there disciples. They are like personal followers of Jesus. One day while Jesus was in the garden praying one of his disciples betrayed him. The guards captured him and then later sentenced him to death. He was crucified on across and died while his hands and feet were nailed to the cross) As Christian's we believe that Jesus died on the cross to save us from our deadly sins. There is a price to pay for our sins. And that us death. But Jesus died for us to save us from a enternal burning lake of fire, a burning hell. 3 days later he did something even more amazing he rose from the dead. So in summary Christianity is the belief of God's son Jesus coming to Earth saving us and raising from the the dead. But there is more to Christianity than you think. So much more. Like the Holy Spirit. We also believe that Jesus gave us the Holy Spirit to guide us to God. Then when we die we go to heaven and praise,worship and live with God until the end of the world. Even still there is so much more. God loves you. That is just my definition of Christianity.

Originally people who followed the teachings of Christ and his message of peace and toleration and acceptance of everyone rich or poor, man or woman, or any race. Throughout history some have abused this religion for their own selfish needs, False Prophets lieing to Christians and saying something is God's will when in reality it's their own. In turn this has hurt the religion some and its lost some of its followers. True Chrisitians tolerate everyone and try to teach the gospel of Christ to anyone who wants to learn or follow it. They believe in the Holy Trinity, which consists of God, Christ, and the Holy Ghost being three things while at the same time being one. Sort of like a cube is a cube but at the same time its also squares and also lines put together. True Christians try to help out their fellow man any way possible. Weather that be in the form of donations, food problems, medical help, or just needing a friend.
Mary: "Hey you want to go to the soup kitchen today with me and the other Christians from our church?"

Christianity is an Abrahamic, monotheistic religion based on the life and oral teachings of Jesus of Nazareth as presented in the New Testament.
This is a neutral definition of the word christianity. Urban Dictionary should be about defining words, not advancing a point of view.

Hitler was not following Christ's example or obeying His commandments. Therefore Hitler wasn't Christian. He was a wolf in sheep's clothing and was not a true subscriber of Christianity.
Some politicians try to use Christianity to justify their actions and/or gain popularity.

The belief of God. When you are a Christian, you go to church and read the bible. Some Christians get baptized. According to Christianity, when you die, if you don't believe in Jesus Christ, you will go to Hell. If you do believe in the Lord and are a Christian, you will go to a wonderful place called Heaven where all of your friends and family who are no longer among Earth live. According to Christians, the end of the world will result in God fighting Satin, the Devil.
