[Opinions] Re: Victoria
in reply to a message by darrengregory
It's usable, of course. If it's too anything, it's too 1980s-90s fad. It was pretty popular even in the 70s ... I grew up with a bazillion Vickis around my age (I was born 1971), it seems. But it's a good name, still timeless, "strong," feminine, and no particular statement about it.

I have a Victoria, it has served her well over the past decade with very little issue at all. It's a classic name, not trendy, and therefore not as likely to get butchered by those 'uneek' parents and misspelt in a million different ways. It's common enough that everyone knows it, but not popular enough that every second girl born is called it.
I too really dislike the nickname Vicki and have done everything I can to prevent it popping it's ugly head up in our lives, but every now and then people slip it in. Not enough of a reason to stop me using it though.
