History and Origin
Grace is a feminine given name (Grâce in French), from the Latin gratia. It is often given in reference to the Christian concept of divine grace and used as a virtue name.
English, Irish, and Scottish: from the abstract noun (from Latin grātia), first used as a given name by the Puritans in the 17th century, and still moderately popular (and to a large extent dissociated from the vocabulary word). Its popularity has increased in the 20th century owing to the fame of the late wife of Prince Rainier of Monaco, the actress Grace Kelly (1928–82). It has always been a popular name in Scotland and northern England (borne, for example, by Grace Darling, the lighthouse keeper's daughter whose heroism in 1838, saving sailors in a storm, caught popular imagination). In Ireland it has often been used as an Anglicized form of Gráinne, for example in the case of the famous 16th-century female sea captain Gráinne Ní Mháille, known in English as Grace O'Malley.
