[Opinions] Re: Erica / Heather
in reply to a message by Felie
I like them both quite a bit. They are so dissimilar in sound, and Erica isn't a plant name in English, so they could even be siblings or part of a combo.
In the US, Erika or Erica is just a feminine form of Eric, which has nothing to do with plants of any kind.
Heather is definitely not in fashion anymore; it was very popular in the seventies and eighties and then fell off fast. But I still like it and I don't see it as a problem that it's not currently in style.
I think it's a draw as to which I like better; I like Heather's softer sound but not the th so much.
