In my home town of Winnipeg, there is a street named Valour Road. It honors three men who lived in the vicinity in the early 20th century who each received the Victoria Cross for their gallant conduct in World War I. (Tragically, two of them did not survive the war.)

Fred Hall, Bob Shankland and Leo Clarke have always been my idea of Valour.

I must amend my comment regarding Bowen.

The name is also given to mean victorious son, and small son. Thus Bowen : The Victorious valorous holy cow the little son....
