cheryce is English in Origin.

Cheryce is a modern English feminine name, a creative spelling of Cherise/Cherice. Its roots are layered: it echoes French chérie (“dear, beloved”) and cerise (“cherry”), while also being shaped by the surname Charisse, linked to Greek Charis, “grace, kindness.” Because of these strands, meanings given for Cheryce commonly include “dear/beloved,” “grace,” or, by folk association, “cherry,” with a prevailing pronunciation like shuh-REES.

The name came into use in the mid–20th century and found modest visibility after the 1950s, aided by the fame of dancer Cyd Charisse and the single-name performer Cher, which familiarized the “Cher-” sound. Usage peaked in pockets of the United States and the United Kingdom during the 1970s–1990s, particularly within African‑diaspora naming fashions. Variant forms include Cherise, Cherice, Charise, Charisse, Cherisse, Shereese, Sherice, Sharice, Chereece, and Cheryse. Intuitive nicknames are Cher or Cherry.
