Origin and meaning of Valeria
Valeria is the feminine of Valerio, from the Latin valere, 'to be strong, healthy, valiant,' and is tied to the ancient gens Valeria. It therefore means 'strong, valiant, full of vigour.' The name has deep Roman roots and is now widespread in Italy, Spain, Latin America and Eastern Europe in the form Valeriya. Parents love its flowing, sunny sound and the message of strength it carries: feminine and energetic at once, elegant and always current.
