This extended form adds a romantic, vintage quality to the classic name, evoking images of the Victorian era and its ornate aesthetics. While Victoria has been consistently popular throughout history—particularly associated with Queen Victoria of England—Victoriana remains quite rare, appealing to parents seeking something distinctive with historical resonance.
