Felicitie
Felicitie Origin and Meaning
Felicitie is a feminine name representing an ornate spelling variant of Felicity, which comes from the Latin 'felicitas' meaning 'happiness' or 'good fortune.' This elaborate form with the final '-ie' emerged as part of the trend toward decorative spelling variations that began in the medieval period and has seen revivals in different eras. The name embodies concepts of joy, blessedness, and contentment. While the standard spelling Felicity has maintained steady popularity, Felicitie offers a more distinctive option that maintains the same melodic quality and positive associations. The name carries a somewhat romantic, vintage charm reminiscent of earlier eras when elaborate spellings were more common. For parents drawn to names with clear positive meanings and a touch of old-world elegance, Felicitie provides a unique alternative to more common virtue names.
