Jayce is English in Origin.
Jayce is a modern English given name, used primarily for boys, that functions as a respelling of Jace, a short form of Jason. Jason derives from Greek Iason, 'healer,' rooted in the verb iasthai 'to heal,' so Jayce commonly carries the meaning 'healer.' The spelling also reads as a blend of Jay and ace, a sleek, contemporary formation that reinforces its modern feel but does not change the traditional meaning.
In the United States the name entered wider circulation in the late 20th century and rose sharply in the 2000s-2010s amid interest in brisk, two-syllable boy names; it remains used, though infrequently, for girls. Variants and related forms include Jace, Jase, Jayse, Jacen, and the more unisex Jaycee/Jacey. Nicknames include Jay. International counterparts tied to the Jason root include Jason (English and Spanish) and Iasonas (Greek).
