Laicee is a feminine name representing a modern, creative spelling variation of Lacey, which originated as an English surname derived from a place name in Normandy, France. The name ultimately comes from Gallo-Roman 'Lassi,' likely referring to a person from Lassy.

The name carries associations with delicacy and intricacy through its connection to lace fabric. While less common than the traditional Lacey spelling, Laicee offers a distinctive visual identity while maintaining the familiar, pleasant sound that has made Lacey appealing to parents seeking names that are feminine but not overly frilly.
