Healer
Jace is a modern diminutive of the Greek name Jason, which stems from the word 'iasthai' meaning to heal. While it originated as a nickname, it has become a popular independent name in the United States since the late 20th century. It is often chosen for its short, punchy sound and its connection to mythological roots.
