Clearence Origin and Meaning
The name Clearence is a boy's name.
Clearence is a variant spelling of the more common name Clarence, which derives from Latin and means 'bright' or 'clear.' This alternative spelling appears to be a contemporary adaptation that emerged as parents sought to personalize traditional names. The original name Clarence has Anglo-Norman origins and was introduced to England during the Norman Conquest. While Clearence maintains the same pronunciation as Clarence, the modified spelling gives it a slightly more modern feel. Though not as widely used as the traditional spelling, Clearence offers families a way to honor the classic name while adding a distinctive touch. The name carries connotations of clarity, transparency, and brightness.
