Ancia - anyone know where this name comes from and its meaning?

[Flier]

Been googling it but no meanings anywhere. Seems to be swedish or german....

Ancia is a place in Portugal.

Have you considered the possibility that it is not a name?

well its a name of someone I used to know.
and i think its a lovely name,

How do you pronounce it?

i read it as arnica....

I've never heard of it as a German name. reminds me of Anthea.

Curious that Google can't find "Ancia" in any names website. Maybe you are not writing it correctly?

it is pronounced like anthea, but with the c replacing the th. c pronounced see
