I believe the H is supposed to be silent so it is pronounced Rith-mark. It could
be one of those breathy sounds that changes the R. Not having heard anyone
speaking any Old English with the proper inflections I am not sure.
But because it is there I am sure some people will use it, either way it is a
cool sounding name that can hold many meanings.
Kindly
Ian

Not sure if there's any relationship, but there's an East Indian name Hritik or
Hrithik which is the name of a Sage; and means also: Intelligent Person; From
the Heart (there's that Heartland thing again :-) )
Is the "H" pronounced or is it silent as in the names, Hroar?
