Meaning of Kandace

Linked to the Latin candere, meaning “to shine,” it gives each syllable its own glow. Picture golden sunlight dancing on cobblestone streets or a lively salsa beat in her heart—this name sparkles just like that. The K adds an extra spark, playful and bold. Parents who choose Kandace are saying their daughter will lead, inspire, and light up every room. It blends royal heritage and warm corazón into one bright, modern bundle—perfect for a niña destined to glow.
