Re: Real life Erica here
in reply to a message by erb816
We have a gay friend named Derrick and I started calling him Derricka. He didn't mind.

Funny you should mention that...
My stepbrother's name is Derek, so sometimes when my dad and his mom want to talk to both of us, they say, "Hey, Dereka!" (Or would it be Derica? Hmmmm...) It's basically a family in-joke.
I minded being called Eric in school, though (and really that was just one of many, many taunts - middle school especially was not a good time for me), because I really was quite girly; I just hated hair pieces pulling on my scalp and didn't like makeup back then, mostly because I didn't really know how to use it.
