English: from the Middle English female personal name Alis, Alice (Old French Adeliz, Ahelis, Aalis, Aliz). Alice, together with its pet form Alison, was one of the most popular names in both England and Scotland from the 13th century until the end of the medieval period. The personal name is of ancient Germanic origin, brought to England from France by the Normans; it is a shortened form of ancient Germanic Adalheidis, which is composed of the elements adal ‘noble’ + haid ‘‘rank, worth’’.
