Charice / Charis / Charissa / Charita

Charice is a modern English name that is a variant of Charis. Charis itself is derived from the Greek word 'charis' (χάρις), meaning 'grace, kindness, beauty'. In Greek mythology, the Charites (Graces) were goddesses of charm, beauty, nature, human creativity, goodwill, and fertility. They were often depicted as companions of Aphrodite and Dionysus.

The name Charice gained some popularity in the English-speaking world, particularly in the 20th century, as a feminization or elaboration of Charis. Its sound and meaning contribute to its appeal as a name associated with positive attributes.
