Nicholas

The name Nicholas is derived from the late Greek Nikolaos, a combination of the words for "victory" (Nike) and "people" (laos). The version spelt with "ch" first came into use in the 12th century and was firmly established by the time of the Reformation, though Nicolas is still occasionally found in English speaking countries (e.g. Nicolas Cage). Nicholas is the 64th most common male name in the US, comprising roughly 0.275% of the population.
