[Facts] Re: Candice is an alternate spelling of the name Candace...
Candice and Candace originates from Candace Amanirenas, who, with her son, Prince Akinidad, directed a dawn attack on the Roman garrison at Syene, today's Aswan. The leader greatly impressed classical writers, who mistook the royal title of Candace for a personal name.Splendors of the Past Lost Cities of the Ancient World, National Geographic Society, pg. 171
