Thoughts on the names Erica and Heather?

I love Heather, but feel like Heather as a name might be a bit dated. Erica is Latin for heather, as well as being a Scandinavian name, meaning 'ruler'. I actually think it's quite pretty.

Go for Heather of the two.

There are also:

Hebe
Daphne
Myrtle
Hazel
Tansy

I prefer Heather to Erica but Hebe and Daphne to Heather; Hazel is on a par
