Name Meaning: Vicka derives from Latin heritage, which can be acquanted with the name Victoria - meaning, "victory, or conquer".
Why: i chose this name for a different reason than most might. My reasons lie within her 'Show Name' - as Vicka, though has meaning within the heritage of Latin, as well as Victoria's meaning victory. My reasoning is this. We often think a victory will require a valliant fight, in which we destroy our enemies. A competition, a video game, life - can lead to some tough decisions. We always charge through, we carry on; its what we must do. However, as I've grown, as I've learned, I've come to understnad that victory doesn't always have to come with violence, but vigilance. Kindness, patience, affection - it can all attain you the victory you seek. Sometimes, being kind - well, that's far more brave than swinging a sword around, don't you think?
