Meaning & origin

Ulice is a rare masculine name that has never achieved widespread popularity in the United States. First recorded in 1913, it peaked in 1931 with a handful of births, and its usage has remained extremely low and stable since. The name ranks in no state as a top choice, and its one-in-N ratio is effectively undefined due to its rarity. Its origin is uncertain, possibly an obscure variant of Ulysses or a diminutive of Ulrich. For those seeking a distinctly uncommon name with historical roots, Ulice offers a unique option without burdening the child with a trendy or overused name.

Ulice is a rare given name of uncertain derivation. It may be an English variant of Ulysses, the Latinized form of Greek Odysseus, or a diminutive of Ulrich, from Old High German Odalric meaning 'prosperity and power.' Its usage in the United States has been sporadic, with a small peak in the 1930s but never entering widespread popularity.
