Jaice is a modern name first appearing in U.S. records in 1993, a period that saw a surge in newly coined names. It reached its peak rank of 5,861th in 2016, and has since been on a downward trajectory, reflecting a shift away from the 'Jace' family of names.

The name has not been recorded in any top state lists, suggesting it has not become concentrated in any particular region. As a modern invention, Jaice carries no ancient or indigenous meaning, but it fits within a pattern of short, contemporary-sounding names.
Jaice is a modern coinage, first recorded in the United States in 1993. It likely emerged as a variant of Jace, which itself originated as a short form of Jason or as a standalone modern invention. The name gained modest popularity in the early 2000s, peaking in 2016. Its adoption aligns with a trend of short, consonant-final names ending in 'ce' or 'cey' sounds.
