Shanice
A girls’ name with no widely documented etymology — two syllables, given to 9 babies a year in England and Wales.
Shanice by the numbers
In 2025, 9 babies in England and Wales were named Shanice. In the US, 15 were, though that figure is from 2017, the most recent full year we hold.
For the size of the two countries, it is given several times more often in England and Wales than in the US.
Its American peak was 1,859 babies in 1992, so it is a 1990s name that has since fallen a long way.
