Christophe sounds cooler, anyway.

Every substitute teacher I ever had called me Christophe thanks to the school district’s character limit.

As a fellow Christophe, I too have seen this all my life.
It's comical that so many companies and systems just decided "No one will ever have a name longer than 10 characters, right?"

It’s wild considering it was one of the most popular names for a while. There were 3 other Christophe’s in my class at one point.

South Korea actually has a law that nobody can have names longer than 5 symbols since a traditional name is never longer than that and it's all their systems are setup to handle.

This immediately made me think of Frozen. That's what having kids does to your brain.
