Comments and insights on the name Alicen: | Edit

Alicen is a medieval spelling of the name Alison. E. G. Withycombe’s “The Oxford Dictionary of English Christian Names”, first published in Great Britain in 1945, says of Alison: “a pet-name of Alice, formed by the addition of the suffix ‘-on’ to the French ‘A(a)lis’. It was common in France from the 13th C and was often treated as an independent name. It was still common in England in the 17th C, especially in the North country, where it often appears as ‘Alicen’…”

Alicen could be a good alternative for parents liking both Alice and Alison and either want to include "Alice" in the spelling of their daughter's name or don't want to name a girl a name ending in "son".
