Viki
Viki Origin and Meaning
Viki is a feminine name that functions primarily as a diminutive of Victoria, meaning 'victory' in Latin. It also serves as a variant spelling of Vicky or Vickie. The name has a bright, modern feel despite its classical roots, offering a more casual and approachable alternative to the formal Victoria. In Hungarian culture, Viki stands as an independent given name rather than just a nickname. The name gained moderate popularity in the mid-20th century in Western countries but has since become less common. Viki projects a friendly, energetic image while maintaining connections to the regal heritage of Victoria. Its international recognition and simple pronunciation make it accessible across cultural boundaries, contributing to its enduring appeal as both a nickname and standalone name.
