I know a woman named Megan (not sure about the spelling, but anyway) who has a sister named Aarika (Erica). What do you think of this spelling?Also, I forget if I posted about this before... Oh well.

Megan and Aarika is an interesting combo. I can't say I hate Aarika; to me, it's better than Erika.

Eeek, but that could just be because I don't like Erica either.

If you want to name your child Erica, just name her Erica.
The first picture that comes to mind for Aarika is a parrot (though I can't explain that...).

I actually knew exactly what it was.
Aaron is pronounced like Erin
so why not Aarika like Erika...
I don't know if I like the way it looks though
because I associate it with Aaron--I think it looks a little too masculine for my taste

I don't see it as being pronounced the same as Erika. The Aa- to me would sound like -Ah or -Aw.

I hesitate to read it as Erica. In fact, it resembles Aaliyah so closely that I'm inclined to guess it's pronounced aw-REEK-a ... and that it's Arabic. As an alternate spelling of Erica, I find it sort of overwrought and trendy.
