The Story of Choyce
Choyce is a creative American spelling of 'Choice,' from Old French 'chois' (related to 'choisir,' to choose) and ultimately Germanic origin. As a given name, it carries the sense of being a deliberate, valued selection — a child who was chosen and wanted. The 'ch' spelling replaces the standard 'ch' sound with a more visual distinctiveness.
