Valary

Valary is an English variant of the name Valerie, which derives from the Latin family name Valerianus, itself rooted in the Latin word valere, meaning to be strong or healthy. The name entered English use through French Valérie and has been borne by several early Christian saints, contributing to its spread across medieval Europe. Valary represents a phonetic respelling that emerged in modern English-speaking contexts. Closely related forms include Valerie, Valeria, Valery, and Valarie.
