Akira is Nikki's 'one true love', Nikki is not his, not by a long shot.

The Akita can normally hear its name from anyone, before it blocked this due to the Sekai trauma. His name has nothing to do with how much he loves someone.
His name only matters at the exact moment he tells someone because it shows that Akira cares a little about that person, otherwise it doesn't matter much because he can hear his name from anyone.
He learned his name from her. Just after she called him by his name that akira actually became part of the story. No one else was able to do this.

I understand what you mean, but your previous comment makes it seem like Akira only hears his name when someone he loves says his name. This is not true.All Nikki did was free Akira from the chains of his mind that he put on himself.
So I repeat what Nikki did was very important for Akira's character, but Akira can hear his name nowadays normally no matter who says it.
He can now. But he couldnt until Nikki said it.
Edit: And that is the whole point. She was the key. No one else in how the fuck knows how many resets did it.

This mass hysteria about Niki's name is happening the second time in a short while. I too wanted to point it out but didn't want to sound like a prude considering the first time.

I dunno about others but i keep calling her Nikki cause it's a japanese name i am familiar with where as i know of no Niki. It's just one of those things where, if i'm not paying attention as i type/think, my hands will default to Nikki.

How I feel mentally when Niki is called Nikki for some reason:
What I do about it:
Btw, just since it hasn't seemed to come up, on top of having Sensei recall his name, she also has him recall the place the accident happened, and it was Niki's letters delivered by Noriko that actually brought back Sensei's first confirmed memory of the past, which happened to be the night he first kissed Niki:
Niki definitely seems to fit the one true love cliché better than anyone. It's probably why Maya Prime and New Maya both feel threatened by her:
She's his childhood best friend, first real girlfriend (kind of hard to count Sekai), and is seemingly only rivaled by Chika (Miss Maximum) in sexual compatibility with Sensei. Currently she's taking care of Sensei's niece and might even move in.
New Maya is in for a brutal awakening once she realizes what Sensei's been up to. Chika and Maya (in particular) are kind of Niki blind at the moment, but we'll see for how long.

On the subject of names, I believe you all have said Io is pronounced Eee-Oh so I was wondering, in this scene is Yuki saying Eye, short for Eye-oh, or just basically hey?

It's more or less slang for "hey now". If Yuki was going to give Io a nickname, it'd probably be Io-chan. Similar to how she calls Tsuneyo "Tsu-chan".
Ay also probably sounds more like "A" or "Eh", than "Eye". Aye sounds more like "I" or "Eye".
Then again, I'm the same dumbass who thought Io's name was "Lo" for like, hours...so..
