Victoire is French for 'victory,' from the Latin victoria. Long established as a given name in France, it is the direct counterpart of Victoria and shares its triumphant meaning while sounding softer and more clipped. Rare in the U.S., where the English form dominates (said 'veek-TWAHR').

It appears rarely in the U.S. and remains far more familiar in France. Rare, elegant, and triumphant.

Did you know? Victoire is simply the French word for 'victory' — the same Latin victoria that gives us Victoria, wearing a French accent (said 'veek-TWAHR').
