Delice means “delight” in Anglo-Norman!
My name is Delece. I am really quite shocked to see comments that it sounds trashy & like a stripper name! I'm not offended but found it fascinating because I've only ever heard how pretty it is!
I've always had plenty of attention because of my name & it's always a talking point for sure. Some people call me Del or Dee. Delice is a variant of Delicia, hence I believe the name is originally Latin & in later times worked it's way into a translation of French. French descended primarily from Vulgar Latin that evolved out of the Gallo-Romance dialects spoken in northern France.
My surname is Lithuanian, so my full name is very unique & can be a pain when trying to spell it over the phone or when meeting new people (my middle name is Lynda so I do have some kind of normality there). Delece is also my auntie's middle name.
Overall, I very much like my name & almost everyone I know/meet go on about how unusual & beautiful it is. My only complaint is sometimes my name is autocorrected to Delete via email or text which is kind of embarrassing!
It is French for Delightful.
That is interesting, I always thought my name was French!
