Hi,
If it's a girl, I'd really like to name her after my mother.
Her name is Hendrika. Does anyone have any idea what you could shorten or adapt that to?
Greetings,
Arianne

    @Arianne,

    Rika, Karin, Dirkje,

    Mix them up a bit or go for Hendrika as a middle name, but hopefully I've helped you along a bit..

    Cheers Ju

    Henrieke is beautiful! It looks similar but feels more modern.

    Haha what timing, Gerda! I hadn't even read yours yet!

    Yes, that is indeed a coincidence!
    A classmate of my son has that name, which is why I thought of it.

    You could also make it Erika. It's a more southern name, but I think it's lovely. My friend is called Erika.
