I usually go for 'descriptive' names for my roosters.
I have birds that are backyard-mixes, with a strong influence from game fowl, with lesser influences from americauna, white leghorn & 'production' red (Rhode island red types).

My top rooster's name is "Pretty Boy", he is the size of a leghorn and has the coloring of a game cock; deep copper and gold with a patchwork of other colors for accent.

His eventual replacement is a very mature cockerel that I've named "Dos Dedos" (two toes) as he has twin-toes on the back of one foot (a genetic, yet charming & unique deformity that I wouldn't mind propagating). I expect that he will grow to be about the size of "Pretty Boy". "Dos Dedos" has predominantly salt & pepper coloring with distinct and very bold patches of other, more vivid colors making him look more like the handiwork of a skilled quilter. He's such a handsome bird that I traded a cornish-cross rooster that weighed twice as much for him. The neighbor and I were mutually satisfied with the trade as I wanted to breed him, and they wanted to eat him.
 
Queen Victoria, the grandmother of all European royalty
As a non-British European whose culture (and its royalty) predates that of England/UK by a lot, I can argue the validity of this :D

I vote for Victor if I had to choose one of the two. Though I'd like to suggest another option - Louis, after Louis XIV of France, the Sun King. It would keep with your royalty theme, and it would be a well wish for him, as Louis XIV was the longest-ruling monarch of all time (that we know of). And he had countless children, too.
