Male Ukrainian name (Валерій)
Valerii (Ukrainian: Валерій) is a male name of Latin origin meaning «strong», «mighty», «healthy and full of strength».
The name derives from the ancient Roman gens Valerius — one of the most famous patrician families of ancient Rome, which produced consuls, generals, and orators. The form itself comes from the Latin verb valere («to be strong, mighty, healthy»). The name entered the Christian tradition through several early saints — notably Saint Valerius of Limoges and Saint Valerius of Saragossa. It reached the Slavic tradition later, through the Byzantine and Latin Christian onomasticon, and became actively widespread in 20th-century Ukraine.
From Latin Valerius — the name of an ancient Roman patrician gens, formed from valere («to be strong, healthy»).
