Valery
The French name Valery (French: [valri]) is a given name or surname of Germanic origin Walaric (see Walric of Leuconay), that has often been confused in modern times with the Latin name Valerius—that explains the variant spelling Valéry (French: [valeri]). The Slavic given name Valery, Valeriy or Valeri comes directly from the Latin name Valerius
