Comments for BERNICE:
There is no Bernice in Acts 12:20; however, there is a Bernice in Acts 25:13. She is named as the wife of King Agrippa. [noted -ed]-- breakofday 12/30/2005
A pretty name, especially for a little girl or teenager. Basically, this name is good for all ages.-- MusicRat 8/6/2006
This is a terrible name.-- Anonymous User 12/26/2006
I have a friend called Bernice. I can't really say her name without going: 'Berrrr-neeeece' in a sort of country accent. Sorry, but it sounds very simple and farmer's-wife-ey.-- Surreal 6/29/2007
Bernice is the given name of actress Beatrice {Bea} Arthur, who starred in "Maude" and "The Golden Girls."-- donnybrook 8/4/2007
This could be the name of a ditzy country girl in some story that takes place in the 1950s. The name sounds quite ugly.-- slight night shiver 4/20/2008
It's hideous. It makes me think of rather dimwitted old women. This name can sound very annoying in certain people's pronunciation, especially with a Southern drawl, but gheto speech will do for the annoyance as well. Old-fashioned and ugly.-- slight night shiver 5/16/2008
It's old fashioned, but more feminine than many names currently given to girls. It's cute, and I wouldn't hesitate to bestow it on a modern girl [She'd be the only one in school with a pronouncable name].-- Anonymous User 11/8/2008
Makes me think of the short story "Bernice Bobs Her Hair" by F. Scott Fitzgerald. You would think having such a 'flapper' story written about a girl with the name would make me think of the 20s, but it doesn't. I prefer the spelling Berenice, but the pronunciation isn't the greatest.-- sunshinechild67 10/4/2010

Bernice King is a Baptist minister and the youngest child of Martin Luther King and his wife Coretta.-- bananarama 6/12/2011
I love this name! It has a certain sturdy, antiqued sophistication but is also rather light and airy, in my opinion - sort of like a tea-dyed lace doily :) It would be incredibly refreshing to meet a young Bernice these days.-- Madyson 10/15/2011
