Re: which spelling?
Merrick
Ditto everyone else!
Merrick? Oh sweet stars, no like John Merrick the Elephant Man? Is that really the association you want?
aye yay yay...
Marek.
I think of Merrick as an Anne Rice character.
I am a runner, knitter, scientist, DE-IVF veteran, and stage III colon cancer survivor.
Merrick is a brand of dog food. I'm not passing judgement on your name....just letting you know. And the dog food is spelled Merrick, so I'd probably chose another spelling.

Merrick, since that is the "official" spelling.
Marek looks like a bad attempt at an "egyptian" name. and the rest just look weird.
Well if you care about meaning, Merric is an English name meaning 'fame rule', and Marek is a Polish name meaning 'warlike'. According to babynames.com at least...
Personally, I would spell it Merric.
those seems like 2 different names to me.. it depends on whether you want it to be
merrick like rhymes with derek- then i like merrick over merick
or maar ick (the a sounding like aaron) then i like marek over marec
