Christine Louise was born as the third daughter of Albert Ernest I, Prince of Öttingen-Öttingen (1642-1683) and his first wife, Duchess Christine Friederike of Württemberg (1644-1674), daughter of Eberhard III, Duke of Württemberg and his first wife Anna Katharina, Wild- and Rheingräfin of Salm-Kyrburg (1614-1655).

She married Louis Rudolph, Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg at Aurich in 1690. They had four daughters, but only three reached adulthood:

• Princess Elisabeth Christine (1691–1750), married Charles VI, Holy Roman Emperor.
• Princess Charlotte Auguste (1692–1692)
• Princess Charlotte Christine (1694–1715), married Alexei Petrovich, Tsarevich of Russia, Peter the Great's son and heir.
• Antoinette Amalie, Duchess of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel (1696–1762), who married in 1712 her cousin Prince Ferdinand Albert of Brunswick-Lüneburg, heir of her father.

The marriages of her three daughters were arranged by her ambitious father-in-law, Anthony Ulrich, Duke of Brunswick-Wolfenbüttel.
