Matt Christopher: Hello. This is Dale Christopher, the son of Matt Christopher, and I'm going to talk to you about Dad's name. Dad passed away in 1997.
Matt is short for Matthew, and that is the English version of Mateo, the Italian version. Christopher was the English version of Christophoro, the Italian version. Dad's full name is Matthew Frederick Martin Christopher. Matter of fact, Dad used his middle name and his confirmation name, Frederick Martin, as a pen name for some of his mystery books that he wrote.
