What is the meaning of the name Alarice ?

The baby name Alarice is a Female name , 3 syllables long and is pronounced /əˈlærɪs/ (uh-LAIR-iss).

Alarice is Germanic in Origin.

Alarice is a rare feminine form of the Gothic name Alaric, built from the elements ala “all” and reiks “ruler,” yielding the meaning “ruler of all” or “sovereign of all.” The -ice ending reflects a medieval French/English feminine formation (cf. Clarice), so Alarice likely arose as a Romance- and Anglo-influenced adaptation alongside the Latinized Alarica. The name’s roots are firmly Germanic; Alaric was borne by early medieval Gothic kings, which cemented the base name’s historical profile.

Documented far less than its masculine counterpart, Alarice appears sporadically in medieval and early modern records and has seen occasional revival in modern naming circles drawn to vintage Germanic forms. Variants and cognates include Alarica (Italian, Spanish, Portuguese), Alarika (Slavic transliteration), and the masculine Alaric, Alarico (Romance), and Alarik (Scandinavian, Slavic). The core meaning remains constant: a commanding, pan-Germanic “all-ruler.”
