This is the only spelling of the name I could find for Alyce.
Alice
English and French: variant of Adelaide, representing an Old French spelling of a greatly contracted version of Germanic Adalheidis. It was regarded as a distinct name when it was revived in the 19th century. It was the name of the child heroine of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865) and Through the Looking Glass (1872), who was based on his child friend Alice Patience Liddell, daughter of the dean of Christ Church, Oxford. Variant: Alys.
