Going to take a wild guess at that name. But ffs, they could at least aim for a compromise at “Christine” or something. Assholes.

Right, but I wanted a completely fresh name as I didn't want any ties to that religion at all (Christine still has "christ" in it)

I hope they come around with time, if for no other reason than as you become more feminine its going to be weirder and weirder to keep introducing you as a boy.

Well, unfortunately for them they won't be seeing me anymore since I cut them off. They named all of their children (4 others) with some reference to the religion and I guess they're super offended that I don't want to use that name at all.

My brother-in-law is completely off the deep end thanks to his Catholic pastor going full MAGA. No idea what to do with him except tune him out and keep an open line exclusively with my nieces, who are still very cute and chill despite him.

That's really a shame. I know there are some accepting religious people but they seem to be very few and far between.
