Berneice

Berneice is a feminine name representing an alternative spelling of Bernice, which derives from the Greek 'Berenikē' meaning 'bringing victory.' This name appears in the Bible as the daughter of King Agrippa I. The Berneice spelling variation emerged in the early 20th century in the United States, when the name experienced its peak popularity. This spelling was particularly common between the 1910s and 1930s but has since become quite rare. Like its traditional counterpart, Berneice has a vintage charm and dignified sound. The name's classical roots and biblical connection appeal to those seeking names with historical depth, while the distinctive spelling offers a slight twist on the more conventional form.

Pronounced ber-NEES.

As of October 2026, Berneice ranked #9428 for girls in US births in 1976 SSA, peaked at #574 for girls in 1918.
