Well folks, I finally figured out what my name means! My spelling is different though: Chaniece.
The name Shanice is a modern adaptation (mostly African American- see 90s R&B artist Shanice Wilson) from the Welsh name Sian (pronounced SHARN), which means "God is gracious" or "God's gracious gift." The (ice) at the end is a modern attachment, from the English word "ice," describing water that is frozen; therefore, it is not relevant to the etymology of the root of the name.
Furthermore, Sian is connected to the Old French name Jehane, a feminine form of the masculine Jian (John).
I hope this helps someone else out! :)
Iechyd da!

This name is mistaken so many times in so many places on the net. People think that it is English or Afro-American when in reality it is French. I was named after a French family 59 years ago. The name is French. Most people think it is Afro-American because of the singer with the same name. I was among one of the first with this name. While it is not a problem that people do not know its origin. I thought you might want to know where it really comes from.

I don't know where Shanice comes from, but it's certainly not a French name!
