Baby will be fierce but kind with the name Vernice. Typically given to girls, Vernice is made up of Verna and Bernice and has a cool vibe, probably stemming from its interesting-meaning combination. Verna is usually associated with “spring” from the Latin root vernus, but also has Germanic ties to Vernon, signifying “alder,” and Verner, which means “defending warrior.” You can rest assured that baby will fight their battles successfully, as Bernice comes from Ancient Greek origins and translates to “bringing victory.” The juxtaposition of a chilled-out nature lover, who is as sweet as the season’s flowers, and a badass champion will surely inspire baby Vernice.
