Why is Victor so rare? (unjerk)

Like Phillip it's a classy, old name which doesn't sound that old timey and could work in almost any language. Almost every language has its own version of both. In my country there are thousands of female Victoria's but somehow it's more rare for guys. I like its meaning. I actually prefer the male version to the female one (in English I'd prefer Victory over Victoria if it weren't for cigarettes. I like the short version Vicky though.)
