You're getting the idea, but it's not a V designation.
Here's a hint.
V1 is decision speed to continue the takeoff or abort,
V2 is point of no return, too fast to abort so it's takeoff no matter what.
Next one is instruction to pull back on the yoke to initiate the aircraft leaving the ground.

We use a similar nomenclature when making love.

T1 for initial insertion
T2 for approaching orgasm
OF for when the little white pony comes trotting over the hill.


Current record is T1 to OF in 2:35.
