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. ==Variant forms== * Albanian: Valeria * Bulgarian: Valeria * Catalan: Valèria * Czech: Valérie * Danish: Valerie * Dutch: Valerie, Valérie * English: Valerie, Valerié * Finnish: Valeria * French: Valérie (female), Valéry (male) * Galician: Valeria * German: Valerie, Valerié * Hungarian: Valéria * Italian: Valeria * Latvian: Valērija * Greek: Βαλέρια (Valeria) (female), Βαλέριος (Valerios) (male) * Norwegian: Valerie * Polish: Waleria * Portuguese: Valéria (female), Valério (male) * Romanian: Valeria * Slovak: Valéria * Slovene: Valerija * Spanish: Valeria * Swedish: Valeria, Valerie * Russian: Valeriya (female), Valery (male) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Valerie (given name)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
