My name is Erik, with a K, not a C. My name is spelled the same way as the Phantom of the Opera (surprisingly, I've NEVER gotten any Phantom of the Opera references). I actually like my name spelled with a K - I don't like Eric and I definitely don't like Erick. Though I do like the German form Erich. (The only other legit spelling I'm aware of is the Polish form Eryk.) Still, people spell it with a C constantly since where I live, that's generally how it's spelled.
I know my name doesn't suit my heritage (I'm not Scandinavian at all - I'm primarily Italian), though I kinda like it that way. I'm personally glad that I don't have some overly Italian name like Amedeo or Francesco. I tend to like Italian names more than English names (definitely for girls - Italian girls' names are so much more feminine than Anglo ones), but still...
My middle name is Ryan. It's kind of meh. Doesn't really suit me at all - too blond (I'm dark-haired and dark-eyed).
@Poki Богдана I put it in Google, and it's transliterated Bogdana. That's actually a pretty nice name. I like the meaning - according to Behind the Name, it means "given by God" (I tend to like names with religious meanings).
