EDIT:
=D I love everyones adoration for my names! It makes me fuzzy inside. They're 5 and a half months, the names are picked- I like them, my family LOVES them, this is here for kicks.
I just wanted to see how many nay-sayers and 'ew wtf' people I'd get.

Valanthe and Viktorhea (( Victoria )) Are ok names, although I am a fan of fantasy and know have heard Valanthe before, I would like to make the following suggestions.
1 Odd Names : The kids will have these names forever, and a name that is too unique will be made fun of by their peers and mispronounced (( I have such a name myself )) and may cause them grief
2 Misspelled names: In the case of Viktorhea, if you like the name spell it properly, otherwise she will constantly have to correct people, also it may be mispronounced by her teachers, peers, and work associates later in life, you even had to say how it was pronounced in your question. It's not a fun thing for a child to have to go through.
3. If you have an odd name that you are in love with give it to a Pet not a child. A pet won't have to be embarassed or made fun of for it's name.
4 DON'T illiterate when you are naming twins. They will likely grow up to be very diffrent people and rhyming or illiterated names (( that start with the same sound )) will just identify them as Twins, and most twins I know HATE that. It's cute for the adults but not so fun for the kids. Agan they are people that will have to live with these names for the rest of their lives.
5. Since you have already named them CHANGE IT NOW go to court and make your... Special names, Middle names, that way they at least have a choice, and you still get your name. If you give them a more normal or at least acceptable name (( it can still be special even if it's not starkly unique )) Then they have an option if they don't like the name and you can still call them by the middle name.

I'm not that crazy about them, although I like both names starting with V. I have boy/girl twins, too, and their initials are the same: KRL.
Instead of Valanthe (it sounds like your lisping), how about Valentine? I knew a man named Preston Valentine and he went by "Val" his whole life.
Victoria is a pretty name, but keep the traditional spelling. Viktorhea is only going to needlessly confuse people, especially your daughter.

I don't like being negative, but you asked. The names are awful. It sounds like you are trying to hard to be different. I understand wanting to be unique, but those aren't unique, just awful. Victoria isn't bad, but why would you want the spelling to look like you misspelled diarrhea? Why don't you pick a subject or culture that fascinates you and try to come up with a name derived from that. It would be original and have meaning. Good luck, I hope you find something great.

I think the names are AWESOME and totally unique. I love unique names. My name (which I can't give out, sorry) means victory, and it's not a common name. Well, maybe in India. And you can find easy nicknames for names like those to. Viktorhea could be Vicky. And Valanthe could be Al or something like that. Anyway, I don't think it's nice if people say baby names are bad. I mean, it's a special new life in this world and you need to make it unique and different so it will stand out and learn how to express itself.

Valanthe is unique, I kinda like it. Viktorhea: I usually like unique spellings, but this almost seems like a parody of a unique spelling. It's too many letters to sort through. Viktorea, Viktoriah, Viktorya are in my opinion a little easier on the eyes.

Valanthe sounds like I have a lisp when I say it.
Whenever I see a word that ends in -hea I think of the word diarhea.
Sorry - but you asked our opinions. It doesn't mean crapolla anyway. It's what you think is the important thing.

Ugly, ugly, ugly. When naming your child, you should think about how they will feel about the name. Both names are hard to spell, confusing for others to pronounce and would be a burden on your child. Are you even old enough to have a child......only a young person would come up with something that dumb.
