It was given to her by her parents in honor of St. Vincent's Hospital, where her uncle was resuscitated after being found nearly frozen to death. (Lucky for her her uncle wasn't taken to City General.)

But she (and her family) did choose to use it, as opposed to Edna. She was known as "Vincent". And I must admit, the full name flows beautifully. But I'd have used Edna as the name she was known by.
