Valene

Meaning of Valene

The name Valene traces its roots to the Latin term valens, meaning “strong” or “healthy,” and functions as a feminine offshoot of the Roman Valentinus. In English, it is uniformly pronounced vuh-LEEN (vəˈliːn), offering a classic cadence without competing directly with the more popular Valentine or Valentina. California birth records show Valene surfacing sporadically since the late 1950s—peaking at rank 312 in 1958 and holding modest placements in the early 1980s—underscoring its status as a rare but enduring choice. This scarcity often appeals to parents seeking a name with historical substance and minimal mainstream presence. It is hardly a household name, but that suits many parents just fine. Valene strikes a balance of vigor and elegance, embodying a subtle strength that feels both timeless and refreshingly distinctive.
