Canice, Canicio and Canizio are Italian equivalents of the English name "Kenneth." The masculine proper name traces its origins back to two Gaelic names, Cainnechfor "handsome" and Cináed for "fiery," Latinized as Canicus for the saint (515?-600) of Aghaboe, Ireland, with a feast day of October 11. The respective pronunciations will be "ka-NEE-tchey," "ka-NEE-tcho" and "ka-NEE-tsyo" in Pisan Italian.
