History & Origin
Ulices is the Spanish spelling in a long chain that runs back through the Latin Ulysses to the Greek Odysseus, the wandering hero of Homer's epic. The recorded meaning, 'to hate', is tied to that Greek root, and the Spanish form keeps the legend while softening the spelling for its own sound system.
Its relatives map the same name across languages: Ulysses and Ulysse in the Latin and French lines, and Odysseas, Odyssefs, and Odysseus closer to the Greek original.
