Orlice Origin and Meaning
The name Orlice is a girl's name.
Orlice is an uncommon feminine name with possible roots in several linguistic traditions. It may be derived from the French word 'or' meaning 'gold,' suggesting precious qualities. Alternatively, it could be connected to the Old English 'orlege' meaning 'fate' or 'destiny.' In some Slavic languages, 'orel' refers to an eagle, potentially giving Orlice connotations of freedom and majesty. The name's rarity means it carries an air of distinction and uniqueness. Orlice has never entered mainstream popularity charts but may appeal to parents seeking an elegant, unusual name with an antique feel. Its melodic quality and soft ending sound make it graceful despite its relative obscurity in most naming traditions.
