    Erik is an awesome name, its also the name of one of my all time favourite characters from a series of books, his name was Erik Von Darkmoor Hero of the Serpentwar Saga ^^

    Lots of people at work call me Big Boss... which of course I love as I am a huge MGS fan ^^

    I don't get people's names wrong. Because I'm perfect.
    I pay attention when I learn someone's name and make a habit of identifying them by that name whenever I see them (even if we don't get the chance to talk or socialize in any way). The only name I've gotten wrong was a guy named Paulo (SPOILER)(that's his middle name, I think his first name was something he considered horribly ordinary just like my first and middle names) whom I called Raimundo (he reminded me of a character from Xiaolin Showdown... how many times have I told this story?)

    People don't remember my name because everybody else in the world is a self-centered a-hole. I bet nobody on this site even knows my name... and yes, it used to be displayed in my profile... but now if you want to know my name, you have to figure out where you can find that guy on Youtube who makes an ass out of himself singing songs without music.

    You get points for being a Feist fan, and I will ignore that you spelled the greatest name ever conceived wrong.

    Eric, with a c, is the greatest name ever. All other forms are pretenders.

    Getting dangerously close to Erdrick here, chaps. Let's tone it down before an admin has to step in.

    Eric/Erik/Erick... just not a good name no matter how you spell it. Eric with a "c" is an anagram for rice so it's suitable for East Asians and perhaps Mexicans.

    Erik is too Russian...

    Erick wants to be cool but demands to much with that extra "E" at the beginning. Just go with Rick. Although Rick is a terrible name too. Sounds like wreck. Just change your name.

    My mexican uncle insists on calling me Raquel because it either is my name in Spanish or is as close as it gets to my name in Spanish. One or the other, I can never remember.

    My mother calls me Rose when she's upset with me, and my friends constantly shorten my name, Rach, Rachie, once it was even Roach. (I'm at a loss with that one).

    Other than that, I don't really recall someone mistakenly calling me something else. Quite a bit of people have called, and still call me Julia. They do that on purpose though.
    You always said I looked grumpy. But those were the happiest days of my life.
