History & Origin

Vicke is one of the many casual mid-century spellings of Vicki, given as a first name in its own right during the postwar taste for friendly diminutives. Behind it stands Victoria, the Latin 'victory,' so even in this compact form the name carries a triumphant meaning.

Vicke clustered in the 1940s through 1960s, the peak years for Vicki and its cousins, then faded. A woman named Vicke from that period would be in her sixties or seventies today, a name of the Boomer generation.

Did you know? Victoria, the source of Vicki and Vicke, was the Roman goddess of victory, and the long reign of Queen Victoria later made the name a byword for an entire era.
