History and Origin
Valerie is almost always a feminine given name in English, derived directly from the French Valérie (a female-only name) and ultimately from the Latin Valeria. Valerie is also used as a nickname for Valeria. Both are often shortened to Val. Valéry or Valery is a masculine given name in parts of Europe (particularly in France and Russia), as well as a common surname in Francophone countries. Another, much rarer, French masculine form can be Valėre.
Both feminine and masculine forms have derivatives in many European languages, and are especially common in Russian and other Eastern European languages. However the masculine form is not always a cognate of the feminine: it can have a distinct etymology.
English: from the French form of the Latin name Valēria, the feminine form of the old Roman family name Valērius, which was apparently derived from valēre to be healthy, strong. The name was popular in France in the Middle Ages as a result of the cult of a 3rd-century saint (probably spurious) converted by Martial of Limoges.
Cognate: French: Valérie.
Short form: English: Val.
