Marika is Japanese. Are you Japanese?

Marianne?

Quite like the sound of Marika. Is it pronounced m'REE-ka or MARRY-ka? Where does it come from?

It is unusual certainly and maybe people don't recognise it as they do Miranda, so that's why? Miranda is lovely though.

For your 'something similar' how about Marit?

I was leaning towards Marika. But it seems Miranda is preferred. Any reasons why you don't like it?

I like Marika. It sounds feisty!
