Victory of Nicole

My name, Nicole, means 'victory of the people' and comes from Greece. My parents informed me that they chose my name because of its popularity at the time and from the fact that they liked it. Boring. No one else in my family, to my knowledge, has the same name as I do. 
When I was younger, I believe in 7th grade, we had to do a research on the meaning of our names as well. I always knew my name meant 'victory of the people', so it was something that always stuck in the back of my brain. 'Victory of the people' I feel has a much stronger, more blunt definition at the first thought: a leader, confident, outgoing and very public but when I dug deep enough I found my own definition, with my own personality that fit my own version of what I made 'victory of the people.' 
Personally, my name does not bother me, but I would change it. I feel like I need a more unique name to fit me to a tee. My middle name does nothing for me whatsoever, it is the most popular middle name ever, Marie. 
The name Nicole also is from the Nicholas, which is a mans name. /:
