Christina or Erika?

[Vasselisa]

That's it really!

The 'k' in Erika is due to our partly continental European background. I'm not sure if we'd go with Kristina though. Something to think about still.

Thoughts?

I prefer Christina but they are both nice names. I prefer Erica with a c though, but understand why you want the spelling to reflect your heritage. I just find k an ugly letter somehow!
Also, though obviously this doesn't apply to you, using a k in a name that is traditionally spelled with a c in this country is one of those things like swapping an i for a y or replacing ck with x (or even xx ) that people tend to do when they are trying to be "unique". Clearly you are using a culturally appropriate spelling but you might find some people make assumptions about why you've chosen that spelling if they don't know your heritage.

Another vote for Erica/Erika. It's a lovely name. Christina is pretty too, but a little dated in my opinion.

Christina
