Meaning: sweet
This is about as sweet a name as you can get. Dulcie comes from the Latin word dulcis, meaning "sweet," and is also the Spanish word for "candy." It's related to the name Dulce, a traditional Roman name that Cervantes drew inspiration from when naming Dulcinea, the chosen lady of erratic knight Don Quixote. Baby Dulcie can use her name as a reminder to be as sweet as pie, even if her tantrums might say otherwise.
