Name written under the Viking context, as Erik Erik Thorvaldsson “the red” written with just a K in some books. Derived from the Old Norse name Eiríkr, that does not have a C anywhere.
Meaning "one, alone, unique", as in the form Æinrikr explicitly, but it could also be from *aiwa(z) "everlasting, eternity", as in the Gothic form Euric. The second element -ríkr stems either from Proto-Germanic *ríks "king, ruler" (cf. Gothic reiks) or the therefrom derived *ríkijaz "kingly, powerful, rich, prince"; from the common Proto-Indo-European root *h₃rḗǵs The name is thus usually taken to mean "sole ruler, autocrat" or "eternal ruler, ever powerful". As Erik or Eric sounds the same, used in the sense of a proper noun meaning "one ruler" may be the origin of Eriksgata, and if so it would have meant "one ruler's journey". The tour was the medieval Swedish king's journey, when newly elected, to seek the acceptance of peripheral provinces.
So if your name is Erik with a K, that’s the original! all others are just adaptations.
