Jannice is English in Origin.
Jannice is a modern respelling of Janice, an English elaboration of Jane, which ultimately derives from Hebrew Yohanan, meaning "Yahweh is gracious" or "God is gracious." Janice emerged in the late 19th century, gained visibility through the popular novel Janice Meredith (1899), and peaked across the English-speaking world in the mid-20th century. The double-n form Jannice developed later as a stylistic variant and appears sporadically in the United States, the United Kingdom, and parts of Scandinavia.
Variants and related forms include Janice, Janis, Janise, Janiece, Janyce, and the wider family Jane, Joan/Joanne, Joanna, Johanna, Jean/Jeanne, and Janine/Jeannine. Nicknames commonly used are Jan and Janie. Though the spelling sets it apart, Jannice shares the enduring meaning "God is gracious," offering a familiar foundation with a distinctive, gently modern twist.
