What Does the Name Valyrie Mean?
Valyrie is a respelling of Valerie, the French feminine form of the Latin name Valeria. Valeria is the feminine of the Roman family name Valerius, which comes from the Latin verb valere, meaning "to be strong" or "to be healthy." The literal sense of the name is thus "strong" or "healthy," and the spelling with y does not alter that Latin origin.
The spelling also resembles the word valkyrie, from Old Norse valkyrja, but that is a separate word with a different root and is not the source of Valerie or Valyrie.
Valyrie Name History & Origins
The name descends from the Latin Valeria, the feminine of Valerius, a Roman family name (the Valerii) built on valere. The feminine form passed into French as Valérie and into English as Valerie. Valyrie is an altered spelling of that English name rather than a distinct tradition. Its resemblance to "valkyrie," the Old Norse valkyrja (literally "chooser of the slain"), reflects different languages and roots, not a shared origin.
