At the time when Victoria separated from New South Wales, the colonies of Australia were still under British rule. Queen Victoria was the reigning monarch of the time, so it was prudent to honour her by naming a state after her. It was she who signed the Letters Patent permitting Victoria to separate from New South Wales, after all.

It is likely that the major reason is that she ruled Britain for over 63 years - long time for anyone to rule. As a result there was a lot of time for things to be named after her DURING her reign and a lot of people to remember her being ruler and hence want to honor her by naming things after her posthumously.
