If you're pronouncing it va-law(n)-TEEN, I think it's pretty, but prefer Valentina. If you're pronouncing it like the day with glittery construction papter hearts and crappy candy (ie, if you're pronouncing it VAL-en-tien), no. It's a boy's name.

As Mel said, it's pretty cheesey if you give it to her because she was born on said day with construction paper hearts. Can you imagine growing up named Valentine with your birthday on Valentine's Day? Yikes. (Same reason I can't stand Noel/Noelles born on Christmas. A subtle nod is okay though I don't care for it, but I find that tacky.)
