This is my name, everyone either spells it or pronounces it wrong. It's ANN-ih-kuh, well that's how mine's pronounced.
Also Czech: https://cs.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anika
Most of the women in the United States named Anika are African-American. It is probable that they derive the name neither from the Germanic and Slavic pet form of Anna nor from the Hindi feminine of Anik, but instead that it is a 20th century invented name like the similar Shanika, Tanika, etc.
Gorgeous.
This name is cute. I kinda like it spelled Onica too, it seems very oceany to me.
Anika is usually named for a girl that plays hockey as it is very masculine and very appropriate for someone who has abs.
I really do not like this name. Sorry.
Also used in Bulgarian, spelled Аника : https://bg.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%90%D0%BD%D0%B8%D0%BA%D0%B0

I was almost named Anika, my mom is German. I like the meaning in both German and Sanskrit, it’s so beautiful, simple yet strange and unique, smart, and I just love the sound. If I have a daughter I might name her either Anika, Marina, Skye, Carter, or Jacqueline, or maybe something Japanese.
Spooky. I like it.
I prefer it spelt Annika.

My cousin's name is Anika but we pronounce it Ahn-ih-kuh with a short O, short I and short U sound.
This name screams ghetto.
This is not an English name, but a German/Dutch/etc one. Your racism and idiocy extends to criticizing extremely common sounds in European names because they sound "ghetto" to you. And yet you probably use the word "ghetto" in part to mean "uneducated", because you somehow consider yourself educated. Meanwhile you make these kind of comments.
This is also an Indian name: अनिका Anīkā, a feminine form of अनीक Anīk or Anīka "army, battle" or "splendour". [noted -ed]

One of my best frinds is called Anika and she hates it when I call her Aneeka. I think it's a really pretty name. It suits her well and I would definitely name my daughter Anika.
Also a feminine name in Slovenia.
