Stace

Stace is an English name derived from the medieval short form of Eustace, which traces back through Old French Eustache to the Latin Eustachius, ultimately from the Greek Eustakhios, meaning good harvest or fruitful. The Greek root combines eu, meaning well or good, with stakhys, meaning ear of grain. The name was borne by Saint Eustace, a Christian martyr whose veneration helped spread the name across medieval Europe. Related forms include Eustace, Stacey, and Stacy.
