I like Erica and Katerina, any opinions on them much appreciated.

Also any other similar suggestions? I like names that are quite Scandinavian or East European sounding.

Thanks

I like both, although I'd lose the "e" from Katerina, as Katrina is simpler.

How about Lana, Natasha, Anya, Lydia, Galina, Larissa, Marina, Tamara, Sofia, Nina?

Erika is awesome, I may be a wee bit biased but I love my name Grin Never met anyone with the same spelling either.

Thank you for the suggestions.

I like Katrin and also Katrina, and can see less frilly and maybe better.

Also like Freya, Greta, Carin, Tamara and Lena.

It will become Kat, even though it winds her mother up the one my friends DCs go to school with is always shortened.
