Notable people with the name include Ulrikke Brandstorp, a Norwegian singer who performs publicly under the mononym Ulrikke, and Ulrikke Falch, a Norwegian actress best known for her role in the television series Skam. Both have contributed to maintaining the name’s visibility in Norwegian popular culture.
