The name Vernice is a girl's name meaning "springtime".

Part Verna, part Bernice, Vernice saw use as a girls' name during the heyday of both those names. Both entered the Top 200 in the 1880s, where Verna lasted until 1940 and Bernice a decade longer.

While there are still a few dozen baby girls named Verna and Bernice each year, Vernice has become extinct.
