Victor.

UnnamedFemaleProtagonist · 07/05/2013 23:23

Edward. Love Ed. There is something about Victor that makes it unappealing but I can't put my finger on what it is.

Like Edward a lot. However Victor is a bit different which mo is good but Vic, Vicky???

charlottehere · 07/05/2013 23:25

Like Victor itself though.

Both were on my list for DS2 but used neither in the end.

Victor

Machli · 07/05/2013 23:29

Edward. Love that name.

Victor is creepy.

TheChaoGoesMu · 07/05/2013 23:31

Victor isn't creepy. My uncle was Victor, he was cool.

OneFingerSjupesUpTheYoni · 07/05/2013 23:36

Edward is brilliant i wanted it for ds but dp has a friend eddie so it went off the list. I too find victor creepy but i don't know why Confused

Machli · 08/05/2013 00:02

I always imagine Victor being said in a scary vampire voice. Not sure why.

Thanks for all your opinions. I know what people mean about Victor. However, when I ignore my preconceptions of the name, I think it is really cool and strong. Thanks again for your replies.
