Nike = Victory

Athene goddess of wisdom,war, weaving etc. is sometimes known as Athene Nike meaning Victorious Athene that is where Nike comes in. However there are also little spirits au nymphs called nikes which assist Athene in her role as Athene Nike they are not gods au godesses though.

Nike is the greek goddess of victory (in roman mythology her name is Victory) she is usually represented as a young woman with wings.
Her most maarufu statue is "Nike of Samothrace" (Louvre, Paris)
