Your thoughts on this name/spelling?

Question

"Monika". Do you prefer the spelling with a C or a K? My parents named me Monika (i'm of European origin, that explains the K), i never thought it was weird, i guess i just got used to it. But i don't really know how people see my name, and what do they think of it? Do you think it's a weird spelling?

Answer 1

I prefer it with a C

Answer 2

I like the spelling Monika. Its definitely not a weird spelling. Thats a beautiful name =]

Answer 3

I prefer traditional spellings of names. So I would have gone with Monica. But Monika is also a very cute name!!!

Answer 4

Monica, any other way will be constantly misplled

Answer 5

Moica because when you go inot the store and there a stickers with kids names are on it.. MONIKA wouldnt be there

Answer 6

All the girls I know with that name have spelled it with a C.

Monica.

But I don't think Monika with a K is weird. Although, my spell checker does tell me it's spelled "wrong." Haha!

Like you said, it's spelled the European way, which isn't as common in the States. There's nothing wrong with it!

Answer 13

Since your family is European, it makes sense, but most people wouldn't know that. It's a bit weird for the Americas, but it's fine. I'll bet you get Monica a lot!

Answer 14

I am European, so to me it's not weird at all.

700 million other Europeans will agree with me. :)

Answer 15

My name is Monica and I have always thought that Monika looked weird, but I see now that is more common.  So I guess it's okay

Answer 16

it is normal for me to see the name spelled with a "c", however when I see your name spelled with a "k" I still think of it being the same name just spelled different.  Different is not always a bad thing, it can be nice to have your name spelled "your way"

Answer 17

I prefer Monica. I'm not into the trendy spellings. That being said, my name is Kellye...I can't believe my parents did that to me. =)  

Answer 18

I prefer "Monica", but then again, if it's the traditional spelling in your culture, then you would want it to reflect that... but you probably have to correct a lot of people...be proud of who you are!  

Answer 19

I think it is cute.  I think it is becoming more acceptable to use alternate spellings for traditional names.

Answer 20
