In 2025, 143 babies in England and Wales were named Victor. In the US, 2,392 were, though that figure is from 2017 — the most recent full year we hold. Its US peak was 4,441 in 1990.
Looking further back: between 1880 and 2008, Victor was most common in 1915, when it went to 0.25% of American babies of that sex. Squarely vintage-revival territory.
