Good fortune or luck; a gamble
Chancie is a diminutive form of the name Chance, which is derived from the Old French 'cheance'. It originally referred to luck, fortune, or a falling of the dice, suggesting a spirited and optimistic personality. While traditionally masculine as Chance, the 'ie' suffix gives it a playful, feminine quality.
