First time post; beginning to make lists!

Hi there, I joined when this comm was in the spotlight but I've not posted until now.

My partner and I are already sort of discussing baby names, as we wish to start trying for a baby shortly after our marriage. We both like classic sounding names, such as Atticus.

I suggested to him that I've always liked the name Erik, mostly because of the Viking history tied to it.

He thinks it looks like a "cutesy way of spelling Eric," and I disagree; it would originally have been spelled with a Kenaz rune (and I think the letter C is redundant anyways).

We haven't even added it to an official list yet, but I'd love to hear your opinions on it. I'm probably in a minority for hating the letter C so much, hehe.

Cheers!

"Well, Magneto spells it 'Erik.'" That's good enough in my book.

Lol! XD
While I dislike that spelling, I do like this reasoning.
