Denice is a feminine name that serves as a variant spelling of Denise, which originated as the female form of Denis/Dennis. The name derives from Dionysius, the Greek god of wine, fertility, and festivity. The alternate spelling with one 'n' gives the name a distinctive touch while maintaining its recognizable sound. Denice peaked in popularity in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s but has since become less common, making it a more unique choice today. The name carries connotations of joy and celebration from its Greek roots, and its familiar sound paired with uncommon spelling creates a balance between traditional and distinctive. Denice typically evokes impressions of someone friendly, approachable, and spirited.
