中文词源
来自拉丁语Victoria,古罗马胜利女神,词源同victory,对应希腊胜利女神Nike,-a,拉丁语阴性格后缀。
Victoria 罗马神话中的胜利女神维多利亚在罗马神话中,胜利女神被称为维多利亚(Victoria),在拉丁语中就是“胜利”的意思,源自拉丁动词vincere(征服、战胜)的过去分词。英语词根vinc-(征服)和单词victory(胜利)就来源于此。
而在希腊神话中,对应的胜利女神是尼克(Nike),她是泰坦神帕拉斯和冥河女神斯堤克斯的女儿。她的形象是长着一对翅膀的女性,身材健美,像从天徜徉而下,衣袂飘然。她所到之处胜利也紧跟到来。她还是宙斯和雅典娜的从神。在泰坦战争中倒戈向奥林帕斯并助其获胜。她不仅象征战争的胜利,而且代表希腊人日常生活中的许多领域尤其是竞技体育领域中的成功。因此她被认为是带来好运的神祇,经常作为艺术作品所表现的对象。著名体育品牌耐克(NIKE)就来自胜利女神的希腊名字Nike。
