I wouldn’t know [name_f]Elke[/name_f] was pronounced the same as [name_f]Elka[/name_f]. I don’t associate it with anything, though I’m not from [name_f]Canada[/name_f].
Definitely [name_f]Elka[/name_f]!
If you want to get the pronunciation right it’s better with [name_f]Elka[/name_f]. Many will pronounce “[name_f]Elke[/name_f]” as elk or el-kee
But I think both spellings are nice 
I think [name_f]Elke[/name_f] looks better, but I don’t think the pronunciation would be picked up by everyone, so [name_f]Elka[/name_f] would probably be easier.
I prefer [name_f]Elke[/name_f], but I’ve never met anyone who spelled it differently.
I like the way [name_f]Elke[/name_f] looks but I thought that it is pronounced [name_f]El[/name_f]-kee, I don’t know if most people are familiar with the pronunciation you like, and if not, I would choose [name_f]Elka[/name_f]. I’m not familiar with the company and if it isn’t well known, I wouldn’t worry about it.
I prefer how [name_f]Elke[/name_f] looks, but I only know how it is pronounced because I met one.
[name_f]Elke[/name_f]/[name_f]Elka[/name_f] is a beautiful name!
I agree that a lot of people might not know how to pronounce [name_f]Elke[/name_f], but [name_f]Elka[/name_f] might help that!
I’ve never heard of the company with that name, so I dont think it should be a problem. You should use the spelling you love.
