<<Nike was a surname of the goddess Athene ( or Minerva) and it meant ' victory'. The name never corresponded to a particular being>>
That's not correct. Nike was the daughter of Pallas (the Titan whom Athena replaced) and Styx. She was the personification of the concept of Victory and her Roman counterpart was Victoria. She was often depicted standing in the palm of the right hand of either Zeus or Athena.
