[Opinions] I did.
The most common (at least here) nn for Victoria is Vicki, which I really do not like. (Too much like Nicki, who was a snob I knew and Vick's Vapor Rub, lol). When people said, "Oh, Victoria. Hello, little Vicki!" I smiled and said, "We call her Tori-Kate." Almost everyone has caught on...I still have one friend (whom we almost never see) who still refers to my DD as Vicki. I just act confused and then say, "OH! You mean Tori! Oh, she's growing like a little weed. And you won't believe what Tori-Kate did the other day..." After a couple sentences like this, my friend usually starts asking about my son. ;o)
