Effortlessly stylish, with plenty of sweetness and strength, Valentina feels like a fresh alternative to Valerie, Victoria, or Vanessa. 
On trend in Spain, Mexico, Chile, and Portugal, a solid choice in Eastern Europe, on the rise in the UK and France but falling out of favor in Italy, Valentina is a well-established name that hasn’t lost its flair. 
In the US, Valentina rose up the charts throughout the 2010’s and now holds a solid place in the Top 100. Given to nearly 4000 girls every year, it is particularly favored by Hispanic families. 
Valentina is the feminine form of Valentine, derived from the Roman name, Valentinus meaning "strong, vigorous" and "healthy." The name is associated with love, via its connection to St. Valentine, whose feast day fell on the same day as a Roman fertility festival. This makes it a perfect option for a <a href="https://list/630/70-lovely-names-for-february-babies">baby born around Valentine’s Day</a>, or if you’re into name meanings, for a <a href="https://nameberry.com/list/517/strong-baby-girl-names">girl who will show strength</a> in life. 
Notable namesakes include Valentina Tereshkova, a Russian cosmonaut and the first woman in space; Valentina Cortese, an Oscar-nominated actress; Valentina Shevchenko, a mixed martial artist; and Valentina Lisitsa, a classic pianist. 
With its arty elegance and energetic feel, Valentina has been a popular choice among famous creatives, including actress Salma Hayek, singer Kevin Jonas, dancers Lilia Kopylova and Darren Bennett, and music, radio and TV stars, Marvin and Rochelle Humes. 
Perfect for February babies, determined girls, and for those wanting to subtly honor a Valerie, Valentina is a versatile and international pick. If there’s something about Valentina that you enjoy, you could also consider Vita, Vienna, Lavinia, Everina, Viviette, or Ilaria.
