Chandice is English in Origin.

Chandice is a modern English given name, chiefly used in North America since the late 20th century. It most likely arose as a blended or elaborated form combining Candice (a variant of Candace, the Latinized title Kandake borne by queens of ancient Kush) with Chandra/Chandi from Sanskrit. The name remains rare in records, appearing sporadically in U.S. and Canadian usage; it is generally given to girls but has occasional unisex use.

Because it draws on multiple roots, Chandice carries layered associations: from Candice/Candace, ideas of regal stature and, by folk etymology, “pure/bright” (via Latin candidus); from Chandra/Chandi, “moon; shining.” Spelling variants include Chandise, Chandyce, and Chandis; related forms are Candice, Candace, Chandra, and Chandi. Nicknames such as Chan, Chandi, and Candi are typical.
