Shynice
Pronounced shy-NEESE /ʃaɪˈniːs/Medium
Meaning: Shynice is a modern invented name that pairs a Shy- opening with a close of the -nice or -neese sound found in Denise. Denise comes through French from Dionysius, so the borrowed echo reaches back there, while the coinage itself is contemporary.Low

History & Origin
Shynice is a contemporary American coinage, joining a bright Shy- opening to an ending that echoes Denise. Names of this style flourished in the late twentieth century, prized for their soft, flowing finish. The Denise echo carries a faint link to the French Denise, from Dionysius, though Shynice stands as its own invention.
Shynice was never a common name. It reached United States records only in small numbers, given to fewer than twenty girls a year at its peak in the early nineteen-nineties.
