Could someone help translate my daughter's name from English to Gaelic and where we could find the alphabet to write it in Gaelic. Her name is Krista.

Thanks,
Marie McSparran

You can see the Irish script nicely presented at:

I think I've seen Krista spelled in Irish as "Criosta". Otherwise, the closest traditional name to it is probably "Cristíona" (Christina).
