Prince Christopher of Greece and Denmark (10 August 1888 – 21 January 1940) was a member of the Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg Royal House. He was born at Pavlovsk, Imperial Russia; his parents were George I of Greece and Olga, Queen of Greece; he was the youngest of their eight children (twenty years younger than their oldest child, Constantine), and was called "Christo" by the family. His older brothers included Constantine, George, Nicholas and Andrew. Christopher, like his siblings, was a polyglot, speaking Greek, English, Danish, Russian, French and Italian. The siblings spoke Greek to one another, and used English with their parents. The parents, however, spoke German to each other. When Christopher came of age he joined the Hellenic Army, although apparently he would much rather have rather studied the piano.
