This used to be a male name, but it was spelled 'Valrie'. My great-grandfather was named this, but since my family is of Cajun French origin, 'Valrie' might just be another spelling of 'Valerie' in French.-- echo_of_the_past 7/26/2005
I spell my name with the A rather than the E (Valarie) and personally do not like the E spelling. I think it looks very masculine and rough. The A softens the name.-- pregodego2 11/26/2005
I think that by spelling it Valerie it still seems feminine and is spelled the way you say it also. I prefer the spelling Valerie more than some of the other versions that are less common and are not as recognized universally. Still, others prefer to have the name stand out and be different than the usual ways of spelling.-- PinkPrincess 11/30/2005
A famous bearer of this name is actress Valerie Perrine (born Valerie Ritchie Perrine on September 3, 1943). She was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actress for her role as Honey Bruce in the 1974 movie "Lenny".-- AndrewJKD 12/19/2005
Valerie was the name of the character that sort of replaced Brenda on Beverly Hills 90210, played by Tiffani-Amber Thiessen.-- Anonymous User 12/21/2005
My name is spelled with an e, not an a, and I am glad. I think, though, personal preference is due to what you are used to, because I personally don't like the 'a' spelling, and think that it makes the name look hard and less feminine. I think the 'e' makes it look like it sounds val-er-ie, not val-are-ie.-- vallveeta82 12/22/2005
Valancy is an interesting variant with the same meaning, coined (so far as I know) by Zenna Henderson, author of 'Ingathering', a scifi novel. Pronounced Val-ann-see or Vale-aunt-see.-- Yahalome 1/2/2006
I believe the name Valancy was first used by L. M. Montgomery in her 1926 novel 'The Blue Castle.' In this novel the protagonist is woman named Valancy Jane Stirling.-- Anonymous User 12/27/2006
My name is Valerie. I work with Spanish speakers and they pronounce it ValeriA. In Spanish the feminine in language ends in the letter A. I love that pronunciation but I would not like it spelled that way because then you always have to correct people on the spelling. Ending in an E is the most common way to spell it in the USA.-- tweets 2/13/2006
Used in movie "V for Vendetta" as the name of the lesbian woman for whom V remembers in his vendetta.-- Eirena 3/26/2006
I don't like this name, and not because I'm biased because I have a best friend with this name (sshh! she doesn't know!) This is probably because I don't usually like names ending with an 'e' sound. I lean more towards names ending with an 'a'.-- JMagickPrincess 4/13/2006
Valerie is my twin sister's name. My husband and I love it. All girls that I know with that name are so cute. We want to name one of our kids Valerie.-- cwalker4 9/13/2006
I know a girl named Valerie Anne L_____. Her initials spell VAL, which is what people call her! I think it's funny.-- xKatiex 9/25/2006
There's a Reel Big Fish song called Valerie with the line "Valerie, you make me wish I was dead."-- heresthereasonwhy 10/16/2006
Valerie Grey is a character from Danny Phantom, an animated program on Nickelodeon. She's a ghost hunter and has a crush on the main character (but she has no idea he's the ghost she has a vendetta against.) It's confusing.-- patchworkgirl 10/28/2006
Reminds me of celery, don't know why.-- bellaboo 11/17/2006
I am from Poland and my name is Waleria. (val-er-"E"-uh) I love my name because it means strong, which I try to be. Another Polish spelling is Walerya.-- Anonymous User 12/4/2006
My name is Valerie and I say my name just the way that I spell it. Plus, in German, the pet name for Valerie is "Vali".-- v a l e r i e 12/20/2006
I don't really like this name, but I love the suggested nickname Vali. It's cute.-- scarletquillraven 2/19/2007
This is my least favorite name for a girl. It's all stuffy and old lady sounding. Plus I have known a few Valeries over the years and they were all absolutely horrendous. The person I dislike most in the world is named Valerie; if you knew her, you wouldn't like the name either!-- VeryGorgeous 3/13/2007
My middle name is Valerie. I don't necessarily like the name all that much, but it's a pretty good middle name.-- Anonymous User 4/14/2007
Marie Valerie was the Archduchess of Austria and the only child her mother, Empress Elizabeth "Sissi" of Austria-Hungary was attached to.-- audreyhubley 6/1/2007
This is my name. I have never liked it. I really hate being called Val. My relatives refuse to spell it anywhere close to correctly. I just have had a weird vibe from this name, and it is so strange to hear a young chid being called Valerie. I agree that it sounds like an old lady name. I have a friend who calls me Valveeta. I adore her, so it's okay.-- sprynk 6/2/2007
Valerie is the first name of a rather unusual teacher in Joanna Cole's Magic School Bus series. She's known for her frizzy red hair, crazy outfits, and field trips that tend to be out of this world (sometimes quite literally!). She's known much more commonly as Ms. Frizzle or "the Friz."-- Atarah Derek 8/17/2007
There is an obscure Zutons song called Valerie about, you guessed it, a girl named Valerie. The song has recently become more popular due to a remix by Mark Ronson featuring Amy Winehouse.-- Anonymous User 9/5/2007
There's a much famous song by Steve Winwood named Valerie. It is beautiful and has one of the catchiest chorus I've ever heard: Valerieeeeeeeee call on me / call on meeeee Valerieeeee/ Valerieeee come and see me/ I'm the same boy I used to be
This is a fabulous song and it surprises me nobody came up with this before.-- maria_martillo 10/27/2007
Valerie is a very feminine and beautiful name.-- Anonymous User 12/22/2007
I like this spelling much better than
Vallory
Vallary
Vallorie
and Vallarie.-- Patricia Underwood 2/6/2008
I don't like this name, although it's the name of a good friend of mine (oops I hope she doesn't read this.) I think it's because to me it sounds very old fashioned - I could imagine a grandma being called this, not a little girl.-- acertainromance 2/17/2008
I love this name! It has a great sound and just sounds neat.-- jj21jj 3/11/2008
The name makess me think of ditzy, superficial women. I don't find the name very pretty either.-- slight night shiver 5/11/2008
This is my uncle's legal name, lol. Poor Val. Other than him, this name rather bores me.-- not_another_Jessica 11/18/2008
It's cute and it sounds sweet. :) I like it.-- Makenna14 4/30/2009
Valerie Solanas, who shot Andy Warhol.-- MoonAgeDaydreamer 5/26/2009
My name is Valerie. As a child I didn't like the name, but what kid does like their name? Now I commonly go by Val. I had to laugh at the celery comment because a few kids who couldn't say my name called me that. Go figure. I love the meaning behind the name and I kind of like something different. Pet names (Mostly unwanted!): Val Pal, Val Gal, Valifornia, Valley Girl, Valerian, Valeria, Valerie-Valerah-Valerrah-ha-ha-ha, Vallerina.-- Anonymous User 6/15/2009
The Monkees sing about a girl named "Valleri," a variation of this name.-- sea7968 7/8/2009

Comments for VALÉRIE:
Valérie is the name of one of my sisters (the others are Sophie, Emmaline, Ophélie and Corinne (me)). I think I like it because it's not overly popular in Belgium (my country).-- Anonymous User 1/23/2006
Wow. Sounds like an un-popular name! Well, I happen to think it's a pretty cool name. I think it's a pretty name. Although I think of celery, too!-- Anonymous User 10/11/2007
Valérie is also Czech form.-- Emilie007 9/5/2008
