There was an Annika Rice on telly when we were young. Anne-ee-ka emphasis on the Anne, I think.

I really like it.

Not good with phonetics, but would say Annieka iyswim.

Not a definite "e" sound.

I thought Annika was Scandinavian...

I like it.

Hmm, I don't really like it - its quite a harsh sounding name. Maybe something to do with the k in the middle.

I like this name. Recently met a little girl called Annika and it really suited her.

Shame it would sound stupid with my surname (think Annika Monnika or so)

ANNE eh ka is how I pronounce it.

Love it. There was a fairly racy drama on telly years ago about a Scandinavian teenage lovely called Annika... all the lads I knew were glued to the telly throughout.

ANN-ih-ka would be my pronunciation.

Nice name. I like it.
