Vihtori

Vihtori is a Finnish masculine given name, a localized form of Victor, which derives from the Latin victor, meaning conqueror or winner, itself from vincere, to conquer. The name entered Finnish usage as an adaptation of the Latin and broader European tradition surrounding Victor. Notable Finnish bearers include Vihtori Kosola, a prominent early twentieth-century political figure. Related forms include the Latin Victor, the Finnish variant Viktori, and the Swedish Viktor.
