Correction: That's quite common in real life. I had a friend named Chirsta, but everyone called her Christa. People even called her Christa after seeing her driver's licence with the correctly spelled name.

But did your friend ever refer to herself as Christa? Because that's what Patricia Arquette does. She calls herself Kirsten. I did read somewhere online that the original drafts of the movie had the character's name as Kirsten.
She can be called both and if she doesn't mind, who cares? It's like saying you can't call someone by their nickname.
