Certaines traditions se rattachent au fit que les oiseaux recommenceraient à s'accoupler le 14 février (pourquoi pas le 13 ni le 15 ... ça reste à prouver).
On trouve mention pour la première fois de "to be your Valentine" dans Shakespeare :
Shakespeare mentions Saint Valentine's Day in A Midsummer Night's Dream (4.1.145) and in Hamlet, where he alludes to the superstition that if two single people meet on the morning of Saint Valentine's Day they will likely get married:
To-morrow is Saint Valentine's day,
All in the morning betime,
And I a maid at your window,
To be your Valentine.
