It's pr. AY-rik. And I can't see what's "odd" about that. We are all odd to someone.

Thanks! And I didn't mean that Eirik was odd, I meant that Eirik would be a good name because it's not odd(in my opinion)... I think it would be a good Norwegian name to use in the US, I just wasn't positive about the pronounciation.

I'm Norwegian - and Eirik is a pretty common name here. It's the origin of the name Erik/ Eric. We pronounce it Ei-rikk, like you are about to say Eighteen, then Rick.
