Viktor or Victor

The question pertaining to the spelling of the first name of Viktor/Victor Nikiforov from the 2016 anime Yuri!!! On Ice. There is evidence to support both sides but the fandom is still at a loss of what the accepted spelling should be, thus the question "Viktor or Victor?" was born.

"Hey is it Viktor or Victor?" "Viktor, because he's Russian." "Leave."

Victor,or Viktor? 

Ok so my friends,let’s call them :
Dillon,Jenn,Sebastian and Lorell (I can only type these names since urban dictionary doesn’t allow you to type your actual friend’s names, but I picked the closest names I can think of to them) ok so Dillon said
“Victor is American!” “Vicktor is Russian-“. Lorell:stop it dude. Dillon:Vhy??? Jenn: seriously? Now you’re doing a Russian accent? Sebastian: I usually call it vhy becauz I think it’s funny though! Lorell:how did we get from talking about Victor or Viktor-whatever, to talking about Vhy!? Sebastian:you said it! Me:..what’s so funny about saying vhy instead of why?
