Alycia
Origin of the name Alicia:
Variant of Alice, a name that has evolved through a series of variants of the Germanic Adalheidis, a compound name composed of the elements adal (noble, nobility) and heid (kind, sort): hence, "noble one." Adalheidis was contracted to Adalheid, which the French changed to Adelaide, then contracted to Adaliz, and contracted yet again to Aaliz, Alia, and Alix. The English then changed the spelling to Aeleis, Alys, and eventually to Alice.

- Personal experiences with the name Alycia
My name is Allycia. I personally hate it! It's annoying having to constanly correct people on how to pronounce your name. I have been called every Alisha, Elisha, and every other name in that family. I am now 25 and it is no less difficult.
