Alicie
Alicie Origin and Meaning
Alicie is a feminine name that represents a variant spelling of Alice, which derives from the Old French name Aalis, a form of the Germanic name Adalheidis meaning 'noble type' or 'nobility.' This spelling variation adds a unique touch to the classic name while maintaining its historical essence and pronunciation. The additional 'i' creates a softer, more elaborate visual appearance while preserving the name's traditional sound. While much less common than the standard Alice, Alicie occasionally appears in records throughout English-speaking countries. The name carries the same sophisticated charm and literary associations as Alice (notably from 'Alice's Adventures in Wonderland') but with a distinctive spelling that sets it apart. Parents might choose this spelling to honor family tradition while adding a unique element.
