Kandice Origin and Meaning
The name Kandice is a girl's name.
Kandice is a feminine name that originated as a spelling variation of Candice, which derives from the Latin word 'candidus' meaning 'white, pure, or bright.' This alternative spelling with 'K' emerged in the mid-20th century as parents sought more distinctive ways to write traditional names. The name reached its peak popularity in the United States during the 1970s and 1980s but remains in use today. Kandice carries the same melodic three-syllable rhythm as Candice but with a more modern edge due to its distinctive spelling. The name evokes qualities of brightness, clarity, and individuality, making it an appealing choice for parents who appreciate traditional names with contemporary spelling.
