Boy's name

[MaternityNurse007]

Hi , I need a bit of help. I really like the name Erik but not sure which i preffer/better when it comes to writing it down... Do you know anyone who is named Erik?

Would you choose :
A, Erik
B, Eric
C, Erick

Many thanks x

I know several Eric's of varying ages. Some are Eric, some are Erik. I like both, but definitely do not like Erick.

I like a and b as well but not c, not sure why. A fits in with the current scandi vibe

What's your first language? Use the spelling that best reflects your family background. Nice name.

Erik for sure.

Eric or Erik are ok

Eriq or Erick not ok

Eric is more usual I think.
Erik looks Scandinavian.

If you are in England and Wales Eric is the most popular spelling so in absence of any other reason I’d choose that.

Eric - my preferred spelling, looks nicest to me and this is how I would automatically write it. I think most in UK would gravitate towards this too, so if you want to minimise correcting people choose this one.

Erik - more Scandinavian/German, doesn't look as good to my eyes, but that is purely personal opinion and it is a standard spelling.

Erick - I'm not familiar with this spelling, it looks wrong/made up to me, however, that could well be my ignorance showing.

I don't know any Erics, regardless of spelling.

Eric

Eric.

I have an Erik, we chose this spelling as to me it looks stronger, although I couldn't really articulate why.

I know 3 all spt Eric. I would assume Eric was a British child but Erik had other heritage.
I think Erick looks wrong.

Don't know any young ones personally sorry (although I realise according to the stats it's getting more popular again). But not Erick!

Erik is cool Euro/Viking, Eric is retro/vintage Anglo imo. I prefer the look of Erik, but if you are in the UK I suspect you/he will have to put up with it being misspelt a lot (and Eric will avoid that).

I know one Erik and they are Polish. I like Eric personally

Erik

Either Eric or Erik.

Thanks all, i do like both Eric and Erik, i woukd say Erik is more stronger ,,looking" and Euripean in general, but most of you preferred Eric I think. So i am not sure .... i like both 😌

I’m going rogue and saying Eirik (Norwegian spelling).

Agree, it does look stronger

Eric.

And may i ask why Eric not Erik from those who preffer Eric obvs? Just curious lol
