Eric/Erik/Erick

[standersx8]

I'm aware that a fair few people aren't a fan of this name - please don't comment just to tell me you don't like any of them.

I'm English, OH is not. We live in a country where all the above spellings are "foreign", so we don't know which to use. What connotations does each have to you? Do you think the different spellings give the name a different feeling?

Eric is the only one that looks English to me - if that what you want?

Erik would make me assume you were Scandinavian. Erick I would be a bit perplexed by!

Erik is my favourite spelling but you're obviously not in the UK at the minute. However if you're planning to be in the UK in the future I'd use Eric as it will be much easier for him.

Oh, and I love the name by the way!

I love Erik. Eric seems a bit old man to me, strangely the spelling with a K doesn't.

Eric

Erik

I'm English and my great uncle and I think great grandfather we're both Eric. The others look more foreign. Love the name!

Eric and Erik seem like very different names to me, even though they sound the same.

Eric makes me think of an elderly man, while Erik is a cool, Scandi type.

I like Erik a lot, but I don't like Eric

I've never seen the Erick spelling, it looks a bit wrong.

Eric.

Always Eric especially in UK. The other spelling look wrong and your DS would spend his lifetime correcting people.

Eric. It's lovely.

I like Erik. Cool, strong, Viking.

Eric is more middle-aged and Erick is a bit unnecessarily complicated.

I know 2 baby Erics, and Simon Cowell has one. Nice that it seems to be coming back.

Erik definitely more European, but also have you seen Erich? More Germanic spelling...

Eric. I like it.
