PHRPH!! there were only two entries for “Erik”, Erik (the dude who gave Greenland its name) and Eriksson (as in Leif Eriksson, the son of the dude who named Greenland, he was another crazy explorer. He wound up settling Nova Scotia).

I thought it was more fun to go to http://www.rhymezone.com to see what rhymes with my name.
