People on this site will have five favourite spellings of Macaeliyah and Kcaytlin and then write unkind comments on names like this. Erykah is a lovely spelling with important meaning to its owner. It feels very powerful.
This is actually my own name. I used to think it was strange, but I've seen worse spellings in my life, such as Airwrecka (I kid you not). I actually get complimented on my name often.

Woa! Talk about an ugly spelling of a beautiful name!
What an ugly spelling. I dislike Erykah Badu, and she seems to have a ridiculous reason for changing her name judging by one of the above comments. The H is just superfluous and makes it look even uglier. The spellings Erica, Erika, and even the Polish spelling Eryka are much nicer.
Wow. Just, wow. My name is Erica, and sometimes I like these "modern" spellings, but here it looks like they tried to make Erica or Erika into some type of neo-Arabic name.
This name makes me shudder. It looks like somebody was trying to use a real name but wasn't sure how to spell it so they made up their own spelling that completely alienates it from the original name. Its spelling is so weird, it doesn't even make me think of Erica.
