Help[Opinions] So . . .
in reply to a message by blue kites
So all of those other non-English cultures out there are just "annouying" and are just an attempt to look "unique or artsy" rather than based in long tradition and cultural separation? Saoirse is just an attempt to look creative? Elizaveta is a demand for uniqueness? Johann is a blatant dressing-up of John? Sylwia is just some pain-in-the-butt parent's pretence at cleverness?
Did you even READ Less Lee's post?
Viktorya is clearly a legitimate Northern European variation of Victoria, and it's extremely arrogant and Anglocentric to suggest that any spelling except Victoria is not legitimate.

What she said was this:
"no offence..but Viktorya is just a really annouyingly version of Victoria, it may look unique or artsy or different but to me it's just a pain in the butt to spell correctly."
She paid no attention to the fact that the Viktorya spelling was after a specific person with a different ethnicity, and suggested that the spelling was merely an attempt to look cool rather than a legitimate variation.
