| Hi Heike,
Well, I'll tell you, I've searched through all the name books I've
got and even some more at the bookstore this past weekend and I
haven't seen your name in *any* of them. You're quite right when
you say it's a very unusual name! Do you think perhaps it's a form
of Heide? I looked under variations of Heide in one of my books,
but didn't see it - although that doesn't mean too much because
its missing quite a few variations of other names that I've noticed.
Anyway... good luck in your search and sorry I couldn't help.

410.2 | Typo perhaps?! | WORDS::SIMPSON | Igloo | Fri Aug 04 1989 15:27 | 11 |
| Just a really off the wall thought. .2 mentioned a possibility
of Heike being related to Heide. Well if you noticed, the d and
the k are typed with the same finger just a different hand when
you rest them on "home row" I will often mis-type these two letters
for eachother.
Like I said, just a strange thought, you don't have to take it too
seriously! :-)

410.3 | Not a typo | NUTMEG::WENSING | | Mon Aug 14 1989 15:39 | 5 |
| In answer to .3
Nope, it's not a typo. That's the real way (and only) of spelling it.

410.4 | Another Heike | JAWS::MCGONIGLE | | Mon Feb 19 1990 15:33 | 5 |
| I know a girl with that name, she lives in Westboro. I was told her
real name is Mary or Maria, and that her father started calling her
this as a form of endearment. Meaning dear or loved one, now it is
the only name she goes by. She comes from Germany, she's been in the
US for a few years now.

410.5 | I like it! | FENNEL::WENSING | | Thu Feb 22 1990 07:51 | 13 |
| > dear or loved one,
I like that, I guess my mom really liked me.
It's not often that I run into another Heike. Actually, I have only
met one when I was about 15. I was rollerskating and a friend
came over to me and said "Heike, meet Heike" -- both of our faces
dropped. The name is so unusual, we were both stunned. I have heard of
quite a few people who know another Heike though.
Well, thanks for the input.
Heike
