Viktor

Viktor is a Latin-origin name derived from the word victor, meaning conqueror or winner, itself from the verb vincere, to conquer. It was a popular name among early Christians, borne by several popes and saints, which helped spread its use throughout Europe. The name is the predominant form in German, Scandinavian, Slavic, and Hungarian traditions, while Victor remains the standard spelling in English, French, and Spanish contexts.
