History & Origin
Valgene is a mid-century American blend, joining Val - from Valentine or Valerie, 'strong, healthy' - to Gene, the short form of Eugene, 'well-born' or 'noble.' Names built by fusing two shorter ones, often to honor relatives, were a real fashion of the era. Valgene reads as exactly such a family creation, its meaning drawn from both of its parts.
Valgene appears in United States records mostly around the mid-twentieth century, given to about fifteen boys at its best in the early nineteen-thirties and never common. A boy named Valgene then would be in his nineties today, a name very much of its generation.
