Erika

i downloaded the app Nametrix .. saw it somewhere - got curious - and well when i'm curious there's no stopping me - here's what my name "Erika" is all about:

Occupations:

1. Model
(nope - then again isn't everyone a 'model' these days)
2. Psychologist
(have a degree in that)
3. Singer
(when i met The Beau i told him i was famous in Australia - true story) 
4. Actor
(i was in a play once)
5. Nurse
(thought about perusing)
6. Homemaker
(it's my calling other then fashionista' and interior designer and etc)
7. Film Producer
(i'd pass)
8. Writer
(do that)
9. Lawyer
(told i'd be a good one - since i always get my way)
10. Doctor
(what i first went to college for - could of been Dr. Erika - oh well)
11. Executive
(do that)

When i was born my name ranked #87 and in 2011 it was #530 but its peak was in 1990 - it's the most popular in the West - and most are democrats

it is still rare for me to meet another Erika - i meet Erica's but not Erika's - and it's the biggest pet peeve when someone spells my name with a C - i use to cry as a kid when i wanted to buy something with name on it (like a license plate/mug on vacation or name bracelet) b/c they were always Erica - but as i got older i loved having a name that most people don't have, especially spelled with a K - i knew when i heard "ERIKA" in a room they were calling me - to this day when i hear "Erika" i turn and say "YEAH?"; total natural instinct


WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF YOUR NAME?
common or more rare?


oh and HELLO - it's my BFF's birthday today
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ADRICAKES! - love you!


Ps - i'm now on Bloglovin' - hit me up

  1. I can't wait to get my tax return so I can get a new phone and get this app!! =)

    I totally know the feeling about not getting things with your name on it. My name is not the easiest to find!! =)

    I wonder what it would say about my name. Once I got forest ranger as my future job...Yeah I don't think so in lower New York. =P

  5. I need to do this. I love your name. I hope you are glad it is not that popular. My husband has the #1 name...maybe of all time? We get calls looking for some other guy with the same name. Hi mom thinks it's great....I think it is unoriginal.

  6. I pronounce my way like another semi-common name but definitely spell it differently. I like being a little different!
