Origin of the name Valentin:
Derived from the Latin Valentīnus, a derivative of valens (to be healthy, to be strong). The name was borne by fifty-one saints, including the 3rd century Roman saint and martyr whose feast day, February 14, coincides with that of a pagan festival marking the beginning of spring.
