Electra vs. Elektra

Which spelling? We love the look of the K, but know that we'll have to correct people on spelling. However, the C reminds us a little too much of electricity. We're 100% set on the name, just need help with the spelling. Thank you.

I'm not sure why electricity is a bad connotation. Besides, the name will remind people of it regardless of how it's spelled.

Awful name no matter how it's spelled.

Just a suggestion, you may want to consider Elettra.

Elektra is a Marvel Comics character.
Electra reminds me of actress and pornographic model, Carmen Electra.

Yeah neither. This kid will never be taken seriously like that.

Electra is fine. I'd spell it with a C.

It's awful.

I would naturally spell it with a K: Elektra. It's the name of an opera by Richard Strauss.
