Love Victoria but hate Vicky

Is there anyway around to not letting a full name turn into a nickname. I absolutely adore Victoria and has always been on my top 5 yet I can't stand the nickname Vicky.

Could we possibly avoid Victoria turning into Vicky or is it bound to happen no matter what?

I can’t stand Vicky either.

Like Vita though.

My daughter is a Victoria, never ever Vicky and we use Toria as a shortened version at home. She's in her thirties and it's never been an issue.

I know a Victoria called Kiki

My sister was always Victoria growing up, never shortened. Occasionally gets Vic now but only rarely.
