Assuming Victor also lives forever, what would we call the era? the Victoran era? Victorish? Just plain Victor?
Probably its still called Victorian from the Georgian precedent.
Oh, start even further back than that: who is Victor's (Alexander Edward, styled Edward upon his accession I'm sure) governess and tutor? It's obvious from a fairly early age that this child is going to be the successor to George IV and William IV - Victoria's "wicked uncles" mostly showed her benign neglect, but for better or worse (probably worse) they're more likely to take an active interest in a boy. What bad habits does Victor pick up from them? Victoria's temper (the Hanover family temper, really) has a tendency to express itself very nastily in the boys.
There's an older thread around here somewhere about this that reached the conclusion that Britain may get its first battlefield monarch in centuries, with "King Edward" leading the troops in the Crimea personally.
