They're essentially the same. Just Raikiri contains more chakra and is more condensed, thus making it more powerful.

Raikiri is more powerful, which means it either requires more chakra control, or more chakra. Also, only Kakashi can use Raikiri, while Chidori is used by Sasuke and Kakashi.
It's the exact same jutsu,the only difference is the name.
It was named chidori by Kakashi when he onvented it.Gai gave the name raikiri cause it cut a lighting in half.
Kakashi most of the times uses the name raikiri.I believe Kishimoto does it to discriminate it from Sasuke.Sasuke always use the name chidori,Kakashi from the time he tought it to Sasuke uses the name raikiri.

Raikiri and chidori are the same.
Somehow people claim raikiri is stronger, but i found no evidence of it in manga, neither in databook.

Same jutsu just different names, it does however change in name when shape manipulation is used like for example Sasuke's Chidori Stream or Chidori Sword

1.Raikiri or The Lightning Cutter is an enhanced form of the Chidori with the same effects and drawbacks, but more concentrated.
2. The Chidori appears as simply a mass of white electrical chakra in the user's hand, while the Lightning Cutter is more focused and blue.

Same or ALMOST-ALMOST the same, Raikiri is just an upgrade version of chidori. just like great ball resengan and resengan (great ball is stronger and much bigger). or amaterasu with enton (enton is just better control not hotter then amaterasu)
